Cerebral Palsy

Ceberal Palsy is a neurological disorder that affects muscle coordination and movement. In a child with Ceberal Palsy, there is nothing wrong with the muscles or the nerves connecting the muscle to the brain. The problem lies within the brain itself. A child with Cerebral Palsy has abnormalities in the parts of the brain that control their muscles. Cerebral Palsy can be caused by a traumatic brain injury, prematurity, a failure for the brain to develop properly inutero, or a lack of oxygen to the brain. There are varying degrees of Cerebral Palsy. In one case, a child might have a slight limp and will be perfectly capable of taking care of himself. In another case, a child might require a wheel chair and life-long care.
