                    Hi there, My son is 16 months in Feb 2017.
Baby C was born 24 weeks premature spent 8 months in hospital, undergoing 8 different surgeries.
At first I was so sad and angry and kept to myself. But now I look at my son and I'm happy because he is happy.
The more I educate myself the better for him.
I would like to meet other parents/carers with babies with CP/PVL.

            Hi Tei,
Welcome to the community.
We had someone on the site a few months ago in a similar situation here: https://community.scope.org.uk/discussion/30165/newly-diagnosed-9-month-old-with-cp-im-worried-about-going-back-to-work-and-how-we-will-manage so I've just flagged your post there.
There are many parents here who have children with CP. I hope you find the site useful. Do let us know if there's anything specific we can help with.
