What does a comprehensive health plan for adults with CP look like?  If 
finding even one doctor who understands CP is difficult, how do you 
assemble a team that includes a neurologist, a cardiologist, an internist, 
a dentist, a speech therapist, gynecologist, etc. etc.?  And what about 
mental health? How do you decide if you’re seriously depressed and need a 
psycho-therapist, or just stressed out and need a relaxing week at the 
beach?

The October conference for adults will feature the director of the CP 
clinic in Washington DC who will talk about devising a strategy to meet 
your health needs.  Another session will be moderated by a doctor who 
treats adults with CP and will discuss the questions you should be asking a 
doctor about your health.  A mental care profession will talk about 
depression and how you can alleviate it.  And just to be sure you start the 
conference on a healthy note, you can get a free massage at the 
conference.  
But you’ll find sessions on subjects other than health care at the 
conference.  Find details at
