Hi Lou, hope you are ok and the little one is keeping you on your toes.
How how he? I have twin boys which one has recently been diagnosed with cp.
One thing I must say is keep on nagging at the relevance people. You shouldn't have to I know but it's a world of "who shouts the loudest" when It comes to the NHS and appointments. Xx -
Hey, my son had PVL from a delayed and horrible birth which they said could lead to cerebral palsy but something in my heart knew it was going to be severe and has been diagnosed with spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy, I am finding it hard to relate to my friends about the topic how is your little one doing
