Let $ABC$ be a right-angled triangle with $\angle BAC = 90^{\circ}$. Let the height from $A$ cut its side $BC$ at $D$. Let $I, I_B, I_C$ be the incenters of triangles $ABC, ABD, ACD$ respectively. Let also $EB, EC$ be the excenters of $ABC$ with respect to vertices $B$ and $C$ respectively. If $K$ is the point of intersection of the circumcircles of $E_CIB_I$ and $E_BIC_I$, show that $KI$ passes through the midpoint $M$ of side $BC$.
