Story about Cerebral Palsy .

This is my Life

Sep 11, 2017

By: Alivia


I was born in 1999. From the very beginning my parents knew something wasn't right but all the doctors told them I was fine. To ease their minds they put me in any and every therapy they could think of. From the very beginning I couldn't sit up without screaming and crying. When I was 18 months old my doctor finally diagnosed Left Hemiaspastic Cerebral Palsy. He told them I should be telling you she won't be walking or talking as I was doing both those things in his office. In 2008 I started having chest and breathing issues. I went years without answers. When in 2013 I was also diagnosed with Generalized Dystonia. I am now 18 years old, a mother, a wife, and the owner of my own business.
