Hi all,
Miss Felice Vaiani here. I'm 27 from Melbourne
Australia. Thank Goddess that this is an active list.
I have had Spastic Ataxic Quadriplegic CP resulting
from brain trauma after a difficult birth. I am
training to be a mentor for others with disabilities.

I believe this is a list primarily for adults with CP
and I am curious as to WHY so many parents on here
seek 'cures' and 'relief' for their children. With
-much- reverence to you all, having CP is okay. If
your kids hurt it is fine to medicate them and seek
some therapy, but please do not shelter them from the
experience of being a person proud of having CP. Let
them revel in it. I know I do and all the therapy in
the world wouldn't change who I was inside.

Thanks, I hope to find friends (and wise detractors)
here.

In strength,
Fiz
