With treatment or therapy it seems that some kids with cerebral palsy seem to get a little better. How does this happen when the brain that controls those areas of movement have been damaged?

I have never really thought of this as a full recovery but more of a way to try and cope with the issues that CP brings with it. I have a friend who is working to become a CP theapaist, might have to give her a call and see if she is aware of anything up this alley.

I also wouldn't consider it to be recovery, but what happens is that the brain re-routes itself and so different parts of the brain take up the functions that were lost. The brain is an amazing thing.

I have noticed that kids with CP don't reach old age. How long do kids with CP live? Has therapy improved this expected life span among CP patients?

It depends on the degree of CP. There are people with CP who have lived to be healthy and reached old age. But those with the severe type of CP have shortened life spans Log in or Register to read more… |

Making the diagnosis of bipolar disorder can be tricky even
for trained professionals, so it’s best to see a psychiatrist with experience
treating bipolar disorder rather than a family doctor or another type of
physician. A psychiatrist specializes in mental health, and is more likely to
know about the latest research and treatment options.Â
