If your child has been diagnosed with cerebral palsy, you know the devastation of realizing that your little one will face a life of health challenges and disability. Cerebral palsy is defined by Wikipedia.com as “is an umbrella term encompassing a group of non-progressive, motor, non-contagious conditions that cause physical disability in human development.”
Cerebral palsy affects approximately 2 to 3 out of every 1,000 children. Some of the other cerebral palsy facts include the following:
Cerebral palsy is often caused by a birth injury that results in brain damage. The injury may have occurred during the birth process from a prolonged labor, which may cause oxygen deprivation. Fever during pregnancy has also been linked to cerebral palsy among infants. There have even been cases of cerebral palsy caused from the negligence of the doctor, hospital or nursing staff. In those cases, they can be held liable for medical malpractice.
