Cp not just a disability

Cerebral palsy is more than just a disability. It is not contagious, it’s a lack of oxygen (before. during or after birth ) a person with cp may be limited in a variety of ways however they have the ability they need to live a successful life in society.  Our strength comes from our ability inside us that willingness and overcoming ability that drives us to where we want to go in life as we just want to be like everyone else. Cp does not define us as we are not the defined by the disease rather its who we are on the side that makes up who we are. So next time you see someone in a wheelchair or you see one who has a limp to their walk don’t be afraid to strike a conversation just say hi, ask questions and we will in return give truthful answers. 🙂 have a blessed day
