Cerebral palsy is a caused by lack of
oxegyn before birth or trauma to the head.
Basically part of the brain doesnt
function properly. A person with cerebral
palsy can live a normal
life----Unfortunately its not curable as
far as I know. I work with the cerebal
palsied for a living as well as other
developementally disabled persons.
