HANDI-CAPABLE: "STOMPING THE BARRIERS THAT COMES MY WAY".

What is Cerebral Palsy? A wheelchair, a woman, windswept legs, stiffness. And through one side of my body, lack of mobility, and tightness in my knees. That's all causes by a condition called Cerebral Palsy according to the CDC Cerebral Palsy (CP)- is a group of disorders that affect a person's ability to move and maintain balance and posture. CP is the most common motor disability in childhood. Cerebral means having to do with the brain. Palsy means weakness or problems with using the muscles. But that's not my definition of Cerebral Palsy my definition of cerebral palsy ce·re·bral pal·sy A condition that makes life more interesting, more of an adventure and more of a journey. You see I could have started this off by stating the old boring medical terms of Cerebral Palsy, but in my personal opinion it would be continuing the stigma's that I've been trying to debunk since I was 18 years old and wouldn't that be a boring book to read. To be frank, I'm tired of seeing books that don't focus on the positive side of Cerebral Palsy. Well, OK at least some do, but there's not very much, so I've decided to write this full of stories to explain how I overcome each obstacle with Cerebral Palsy. My name is Tylia L Flores. I'm Handi-capable!
