Q
How did Dillion develop Cerebral Palsy?
A
Dillion was born with Cerebral Palsy. A complication at birth caused him to develop it. He had swallowed something before he was out and the nurses could not unlodge it for eight minutes. The lack of oxygen at birth can cause severe brain damage to a new born baby.Click here for more information.

What are some difficulties Dillion and other children have due to Cerebral palsy?

Dillion is completely dependant on us to take care of his every need. He is not mobile right now. He does not walk, talk or eat on his own.

Q
What are some of the warbing signs of Cerebral Palsy?
A
The warning signs that I had noticed with Dillion was by four months old he should have been rolling over onto his tummy. He did not do that until he was about a seven or eight months old. He did not hold his head up of the floor untilhe was about nine months old. Another sign was he always kept his arms at his sides when he was on his tummy and a normal child would have them out in front of his or her self. click here for more info
