I've mentioned cerebral palsy brings so many emotions. For the most part I am normally focused, strong and determined to work through my issues, but not today. I'm struggling because my leg is weak and I feel frustrated and angry.
It is only when you continually have to deal with something you realise you're on your own. Premature ageing seems to be inevitable.
Developmental delays that accompany cerebral palsy, can keep some organs from developing at full capacity and levels of performance. Veins, heart, arteries and the pulmonary system, such as the lungs have to work harder to function and may also age prematurely.
This is a great web site, some good information and list of studies being done.
The Premature aging, eyesight problems, hearing problems and arthritis, from putting too much stress on the joints worries me too.
Thanks Bill. Yes, we'll just have to wait and see how that pans out.
I feel it's probably more important for us to stay and keep ourselves well because of our physical difficulties.
Sorry to hear you are having residual problems due to your Cerebral Palsy. When it rains it pours as we say here in America.
Good luck to you in overcoming these obstacles, you are very strong willed and I know you will do your best.
Thanks Maria. Doing my best.
