Today is World Cerebral Palsy Day. š
For some children born with congenital CMV, cerebral palsy can be part of their lifelong story. Because cCMV can affect the developing brain, it may lead to motor and movement differences, including cerebral palsy.
But a diagnosis never tells the whole story.
Today we celebrate the individuals with CPātheir personalities, communication, accomplishments, strengths, and all the ways they experience and contribute to the world around them.
We also recognize the families, caregivers, therapists, educators, medical teams, and advocates working toward a world that is more accessible and inclusive.
š To our cCMV families who are also part of the CP community: today, we celebrate you.
