What Is Cerebral Palsy?
Cerebral palsy is not a single condition. It is an umbrella term used to describe a group of conditions that cause movement problems. Although the main problem is with the muscles in one or more parts of the body, the condition is caused by damage or faulty development in a part of the brain. The part of the brain affected is in a part that sends messages to muscles to control movement and co-ordination.

My sister is coming up 12 in september,
She was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy at birth.
But she didnt get the disability in the womb, she got it while she was being born,
The doctors damaged a part of her brain that controlls her legs,
So now she cannot walk.
She can do everything else like talk and normal stuff.
Its really hard for families,Hard to do just normal stuff as it becomes a big effort.
But we've got to understand that its not her fault and help her as much we can.
