  • you don't know what cp is do you stingray? it's not paralysis (or however it's spelt) cerebral palsy (basicaly) means that a part of the brain that controls muscles was damaged, and her muscles are too tense. intellect is usually unimpaired. if it's just on the right side, that's called "hemiplegia". people with cp are usually born with it. i don't have cp, but I know quite a few people who do.

  • Please allowe yourself to take just one minute

  • I have CP and I am very strong on a horse. I'm in 6th grade. I am very proud of you!

  • She is very cute. This girl is stronger than me. There are some kids in my class who have this. They have all benefited from martial arts. And although I could take them in one second now, in the long run they will be stronger.

  • I am 17 yrs old girl with Hemiplegia Cerebral Palsy.

  • I have CP but jayus lads this has the opposite effect of promoting people with cp or any disability. In trying to to be positive it has lurched into the condescending "positive" news story! very annoying but then I am not American!

    The reporter over egged it and so did the instructor. The only realistic account was portrayed by the girls mother.

  • best wishes. that would be sick

  • I have CP. My goal is open up my own school, and i have my brown belt so if i can do it so can she

  • This is why I teach karate. Her instructor is doing a lot for the martial arts in helping this brave young girl. Never give up karate girl.

  • keep it up melissa!

  • I'm proud of you! I have Cerebral Palsy too.

  • Keep up the good work, and dont listen to negative people. you will get your belts :)
