Personally, I don't find your remarks offensive at all.

And actually, I've been reading about posited links between viral
infections and incidences of CP for years - it's nothing new, really.

Yes. Exposure to viruses either prenatally (first trimester?), antenatally
(mom has a dormant or active virus at or around birth especially if present
in birth canal) or post natally (within the first month? of life)  has been
linked to CP. This has been posed/researched within the past three to five
years....

pub med search, pathophysiology and CP would probably give you this and
other scary links... 

The gift of life without disabilities is even more precious than you may
think....

I do not mean to offend anyone that has CP. I do not mean to imply that
their lives are not precious and were not gifts. Nor am I trying to be
religious....

I will sign off before I offend anyone else...
