Living with Cerebral Palsy

Cerebral Palsy can affect many aspects of a person’s life.  As people grow older, it may be harder to control the symptoms, but with the right therapies and coaching, it can be possible to minimize the effect that the condition has.  Learning how to live with cerebral palsy may be a challenge, so taking the time to understand the difficulties and requirements is an important first step.

If your child was diagnosed with cerebral palsy and you feel that this disability was caused by a medical mistake, it may be appropriate to consider seeking justice and financial compensation through a civil lawsuit.  Contact the cerebral palsy attorneys of The Driscoll Firm at (800) 900-7704 for more information about our services.

Therapies

The following therapies can be extremely helpful in maintaining a normal lifestyle:

  • Speech therapy – Communication can sometimes be difficult for people suffering from cerebral palsy, but with communication therapy, they can learn to control the muscles of the jaw and mouth.  This will help with speech, eating, and breathing.
  • Physiotherapy – This type of therapy helps individuals with cerebral palsy to strengthen their muscles and maintain as much motor control as possible.
  • Occupational therapy – Occupational therapy can help a person with cerebral palsy to adapt to their limitations by learning to complete some tasks through alternative means.
