my youngest is 2.5, a survivor of bacterial meningitis at birth, the results are tragic. she has soft tone cerebral palsy and cortical visual impairment, imagine being stuck in a kaleidoscope for life.

as part of my journey, trying find answer and heal. i stumbled across the fact that Microsoft's current CEO Satya Nadella son Zain is a legally blind quadriplegic with cerebral palsy. his book refers to the first few years of his sons life as "a dark place". Satya is fairly older than me, I admire him very much.

I have no doubt that it bring great joy and comfort to Satya that he's been able to drive Microsoft to be a leader in accessibility. Most great efforts have great stories. This is one of them.
