MDSC Cares Program

MDSC CARES is a support program for families whose child with Down syndrome is experiencing an extended hospital stay and/or ongoing complex medical care.

MDSC provides a care package for the family with personal items for the child and parent(s).

We recognize that there are times when families need some extra support from their friends at MDSC and our care packages can brighten their day and let them know that we are thinking of them.

Bisazza Family endures and thrives with help from MDSC CARES

When Jackson Bisazza of Holliston was two years old, his father Brian was stunned when he routinely picked up his son and noticed that Jackson’s hip joint popped out then back into its socket.

The family immediately called Boston Children’s Hospital, where Jackson had surgery to resolve his hip dysplasia. But that was only the beginning. In the intervening years, Jackson’s parents, Wendy and Brian, have, without choice, become accustomed to their son’s near-constant medical issues and accompanying hospitalizations. Now 11 years old, Jackson has been through a total of 39 surgeries, some minor and some major.

Fortunately, Wendy says, through it all, their family has not been alone. Through the MDSC CARES Program, which helps families whose child with Down syndrome is experiencing an extended hospital stay and/or ongoing complex medical care, MDSC has provided the Bisazzas with critical support at the most critical times.
