The birth of a child is one of the most momentous occasions in one’s life. It marks the beginning of hope and possibility for a family, and should be a source of immense joy.

One of the most devastating consequences of birth injury is cerebral palsy (CP), a condition which effectively impairs physical development of various bodily systems and limbs.

Different Forms of Cerebral Palsy
Much like autism, cerebral palsy is a term that is used to encapsulate a wide variety of different, similarly presenting conditions. With CP, the shared symptom is the compromise of physical development. Most commonly, it is the musculature that bears the brunt of the damage. The nature of each individual case is in part described by one of the following three classifications:
- Spastic – The most common, may cause lasting physical pain and discomfort
- Ataxic – Resulting from harm done to the cerebellum, causes broad motor skill impairment and may interfere with visual or auditory processing
- Athetoid/dyskinetic – Extreme difficulty accomplishing physical tasks or holding positions
