    My mom was born in 1930 with CP and lived to be almost 85. She died in August 2015 less than 1 month from her 85th birthday. Of that she was single most of her life. She married so age 30, divorced at age 55 and lived on her own for the remainder of her life. This pic is me and her celebrating her 84th birthday.

    My friend was 87 yesterday. I reckon he's the oldest male with CP. Does anyone know?

    Hi @DBEastleigh

    87 years old is certainly the oldest male living with CP that I am aware of. Please wish your friend a happy belated birthday from me and the CP Network Team.

    My uncle is celebrating his 89th birthday today, 18th July 2025.

    Does this make him the oldest in the world ?
