Dreams can come true
Corey Phillips (pictured, with Hon Dr Jonathan Coleman, former Minister for Health) is 27 years old, has a job and lives in Te Awamutu with his flatmates. This probably describes many people in our community – so these facts alone do not communicate the astounding achievement that they deserve. You see, Corey – who is a member of our community – is diagnosed with ADHD, severe Epilepsy, Asperger syndrome (a type of high functioning Autism), as well as other disabilities – and for 25 years, these achievements did not seem remotely possible.
