    Hi @diannech
    Welcome to the community! Would you mind explaining what the condition is as I've not heard of it before. If not, not to worry, we are here to support you anyway we can :)

    Hi @diannech and a warm welcome to the community! I hope you can find this space to get support and advice. You may find the parents and carers board particularly helpful. I have hemiplegia as well so please do not hesitate to be in touch if I can help with anything at all :)
