  • whats CP?

  • Cerebral Palsy

  • If you knew anything about Cerebral Palsy you'd know that you have to stretch all the affected muscles daily to prevent contractures. Please do not comment on things you know nothing about, it is insulting. Instead, educate yourself on CP if you feel you need to comment. It would be neglectful to let her muscles become useless and contracted so that she'd be bound to a wheelchair.

  • i have spina bifida i went through all the physio and stretching till i was 18 i hated it cause it hurt except the times my worker decided to try it in the pool as i was doing my laps and that kind of exercises

  • aww bless her little heart!

  • Omgggg!!!!Sorry for that you will be in my best prayers:(!!!!!!!!

  • That is so sad.

  • I remember this from my childhood. The sreaching can hurt quite a bit. However, I am thankful that I want thorugh it, or I might never have learned to walk. Sadly few really understand how tought this really is. I spent many nights crying, but today I can say it was really worth it. Please, if you watch this don't critisize what you don't understand. The hardest thing today about living with a disability is dealing with people who don't understand, but feel the need to speak up anyway!

  • Awwww. I started crying:'( she's wayyy to beautiful to go through that:( I hope she's doing better. She'll be in my prayers.

  • aw shes so cute

  • it is very hard to see your children going thru that..it is a hard job as a parent having to do that every day for your child its heartbreaking at times..my daughter has CP and needs physio everyday to keep her active...if I just gave up where would she be now? If you are unsure about CP google it and have a look there is heaps of things on the net to read up about...

  • btw what is contractures just for my infomation

  • Well she needs it i know it hurts but if they dont do that she could realy get hurt and it would be her mothers fault for not streching her out
