I went to a doctor a number of years ago, and in a moment of idle
conversation we just happened to get on the topic of CP. He casually
mentioned that "CP is ALWAYS accompanied by mental retardation." Well you
know, back then I still thought that doctors knew everything. I sat there
flabbergasted, and didn't know how to tell him how wrong he was. Needless to
say, that was the last time I went to that guy, but in retrospect I heartily
wish I had confronted him.
