hi, my 3 year old son was diagnosed with cerebral palsy on monday30th jan, 2017, the doctor now wants him to have blood tests and a mri under a GA, she said his GDD and speech delay are secondary symptoms of the CP. I told the school what was said and i have been treated like they don't believe me, hopefully the paperwork will come through from the dr and i can gave them a copy with a post-it on it saying I TOLD YOU SO

Hi @victoria0905
Welcome to the community
You might find it useful to look at the discussions taking place on the community around Cerebral Palsy. The very top one on the list entitled "My son has cerebral palsy" might be of particular interest at the moment
https://community.scope.org.uk/categories/physical-impairments-and-cerebral-palsy
Scope can also arrange for their Information and Advice Worker to get in touch with you to talk things through with you and support you and your son. If you let @Sam_Scope know whereabouts you are located geographically she will be able to put you in contact with the correct Scope worker for your area.
Hope this helps
Best wishes
