CEREBRAL PALSY
Cerebral palsy refers to a group of disorders that affect a person's ability to move and to maintain balance and posture. It is due to a nonprogressive brain abnormality, which means that it does not get worse over time, though the exact symptoms can change over a person's lifetime condition where the brain does not properly control muscles and movement. Some people with cerebral palsy have additional disabilities, such as mental retardation or seizures.
