Hi Laura,
Don't apologize for your English! It's excellent, and better than that of
most native speakers. The behavior you describe doesn't seem like anything
I've ever heard of with CP. You might want to push to have her
re-evaluated... To me, it sounds more like autism or some kind of obsessive
compulsive disorder. Of course, I'm not a doctor, or even a college
graduate, so take my opinion for what it's worth.

or everyone could help. This little girl is trapped in a sort of compulsive
action. She points out both her index fingers in each hand, wets them
alternatively in her mouth and touches whatever attracts her attention and
in in her range of reach. She is sort of trapped in this attitude. One
morning last week I stood her in front of a small piano, she kepped poking
at the keys for more than one hour. Although she was exhausted and crying
she coul not stop doing this. If anyone can help me with some ideas, I would
be very greatful -and so will Mirloue :-)</P>
