Parker asked:


I will be a morning/get ready person for someone with cerebral palsy this upcoming fall. I’m a bit nervous, because it’s the first job I’ve had that’s so one on one and I don’t have any experience with people with CP. I’ve read up on it, but I’m not sure what to expect.

I know CP comes with varying degrees of challenges, but I’d like to be prepared so that I’m not caught off guard and everything goes smoothly.

Does anyone havae words of advice or can share their experiences?

What is particularly challenging and how do you handle it?

Question for any of you with Cerebral Palsy?

MaraDett asked:


I have left hemiplegia cerebral palsy, very mild. Occasionally though, I have these instances where my whole body will shake for a few seconds and it’ll feel as if my brain is being pulled downward. Afterward, I feel just slightly distant and spacey. Is this part of Cerebral Palsy? If so, what is it? I would really like some help on finding out what it is. Thanks in advance!

Does this behavior derive from my cerebral palsy?

Sunday, August 9th, 2009
MaraDett asked:


I space out a LOT and I do random little things with my hands while I’m spaced out, (Like grabbing the hem of my shirt, flicking my nails, stuff like that) and I also have these small moments where my body shudders for no reason. I had it for a long time, and whenever I ask my family about it, they all say that everybody does that. But it happens to me a lot more than it happens to other people. Is this from the cerebral palsy or am I just weird?

I have a mild case of cerebral palsy and need help with driving. What tools are out there to help me?

brndn0125 asked:


It’s a mild case of cerebral palsy. Only thing the matter is that my right hand is limp, i cant grab anything with it. Hence I need to grab a steering wheel when i drive. I have heard about steering control knobs or balls. What else is out there that could help me? I suppose this would make me be able to get a handicap sticker on my license plate too.
