    I am 62 year old woman with CP. I am married 42 years, and i have 4 children. Everything you explained was very true. Advice to all: stretch and exercise as much as possible. And use any available walking implement that allows you to move. I dont pay any attention to what everyone thinks. Its independence im after. Fyi, my mom had know one to ask about cp because they were shunned. Today, let's let mom's of cp kids know we can do anything we set our minds to do.

    Thanks for the video, I have CP too and shoes are really a headache for us lol! I would love to try Doc Martens too, for myself I wear Palladium but the ones that are from Asia, the base and front materials are strong that lasted me for months which is impressive, those I got from other regions seems to just lasted for around weeks. The shoe are wide enough that it doesn't hurt my bunion too much after walking a long time wham my feet start to swell. I do add my own orthopedic soles in them as they are not soft enough. I think they have slight heeled pairs too, pretty cool lifestyle boots.

    Thank you for posting. Am dating someone new who has a similar presentation of cp and want to learn what I can so I can be a better partner without putting all the burden on them to teach me. Very appreciative. (They are teaching me a lot - it’s just that my lack of understanding is profound and we are mostly doing fun things with our time.)

    44 year old here in Atl. I have cp on my right side. My balance suffers when I sit for a while. After a couple hours of sitting I’ll stand up and walk like I’m drunk for about 3 minutes. Swimming has helped me a lot. Not 10 minutes a day. 2 hours a day when I was a kid. If your kid has any level of cp get him or her swimming. The water will stimulate muscles they never knew they had and stimulate their nerves. Bedsores are still a thing for me because I don’t have a want to shift at night. I feel like I’m sleeping on a cloud so I have to set an alarm sometimes to tell myself to rotate. Good luck and hit the water! 😊

    Blemi, you're hanging in there. Even people without disabilities go through some form of mental issues. Being human is very hard. The days will be up and down, as long as you keep going forward. I try to keep myself occupied with different things so the days don't seem so drawn out. Just a small, small hobby can keep your mind busy (even when it only takes less than a half hour). It's hard, but I'm cheering for ya.
