Hi, I support my daughter who has CP. She was diagnosed at birth, due to her birth experience.
I love her and support her but she’s 24 years old now and it can be hard, especially as her circle of friends/trusted adults who understand her is so small.

Heya @mumlove and welcome to the community! I'm sorry to hear people haven't been too understanding of your daughters needs.
I can point you toward our CP category, run by the lovely @Richard_Scope There's a wealth of information and support there for you.0 -
Hi @mumlove
Great to meet you and thanks for your post.
What kind of things does your daughter like to do? We run a virtual group called Network CP. We meet once per month. You and your daughter would be very welcome to join us.
I live with quadriplegic CP and understand the unique challenges that our community can face. If you would like a chat please feel free.0
