Hi,
I'd really like to be a mum someday . I have spastic quadriplegia cerebral palsy , hydrocephalus and I'm registered blind. I'm reliant on an electric wheelchair to get around . I was born at 29 weeks and was a twin . I take 1 and a half Baclofen tablets 3 times a day . I was taking 2 tablets 3 times a day but I've started reducing it already. I also take 50-100mg of Tramadol daily. My fianc
