I have a 12 year old son with spastic CP. He uses an electric chair and goes to an integrated school. He is extremely happy here and has made his own friends for the first time. Recently he has commented that he wishes he didn't have CP. I am trying to give him lots of opportunities to try new things. Any ideas would be appreciated.
