How can playing with a child that has cerebral palsy be beneficial?

---

Just wondering, what things I could do with a child that has cerebral palsy and what benefit does it have for them? School assignment
playing with a child that has cerebral palsy stimulates the 'learning' part of their brain, which can make it stronger...

singing with actions are good, as well as any action games, like simon says... etc. Colouring or Drawing, Shape sorter, Playing Tea Parties or something - anything that might encourage social interaction... try googling it, u may be surprised what you find!  (+ info)

What do you think will be the best way to treat cerebal palsy?

---

I have cerebal palsy Im hemipaligic on my left side. and everyday I wonder what will treat CP until it cant affect the person that has it? I have come down to 2 possibilities in my opinion, either bionics were do it where they will create a system that can deliver signals to the limbs and appendenges that the brain cannot. or by things like stem cell research that will reverse or heal the brain damage that is causing the CP what do you guys think?
Bionics will come first. There is to much controversy with stem cell research and using computer chips and wireless connections to take over motor functions will be possible real soon.  (+ info)

Does anyone know any exercise programs that someone can do with cerebral palsy?

---

I'm 19 and have an extremely mild case of cerebral palsy. I have balance issues and some muscle pain. I am about five to ten pounds overweight and want to lose weight to see if that will help with my irregular periods. Does anyone have any ideas for me? I have been trying so hard but nothing is helping and I am so upset because I can't do fitness programs that are on tv and suggestions?
Hi,
I'm 20yrs old i have moderate CP and currently use a walker (i will be switching to crutches within a few weeks).I go to the gym 5-6 days a week and have been for about 9 months. I've noticed considerable strength gains overall and combined with stretching expect to be walking unassisted within a few months. honestly what i recommend is a change in diet and four days a week on a treadmill and or another cardio machine for somewhere between 15-25 minutes per day
-hope this helps,Austin.  (+ info)

You can find out more about this by going to: http://www.ucp.org or find them on Facebook.  (+ info)

How Do I Order Reading Glasses from Progressive Prescription?

---

I have a prescription for progressive lenses which I've filled through an on-line outlet.

Now I want to order a pair of reading glasses. But I don't know who to fill in the on-line order, given my prescription is for progressives.

Can anyone tell me how I can do it without getting my eyes re-tested?
You total the Sphere power and the ADD power. The cyl and axis will stay the same. Make sure you cross the zero if your sph power is a negative number. The ADD will always be positive.

I am an optical lab manager, so I am just curious as to how the website gets measurements on a progressive. I hope that an optician somewhere measured you in person. There is at most a 1mm tolerance for error in a progressive measurement.  (+ info)

Is it odd that 3 people from the same church have come down with bells palsy?

---

We know a lady at church that came down with bells palsy a little over a month ago. Then about 2 weeks ago my Dad came down with it. Today I learned that another lady we know from church now has it. Is this strange?
The devil gave them bells palsy, stop going to church... haha

just kidding, but yeah, bells palsy isn't communicable, maybe like the person above said they're all just stressed out  (+ info)

Where have cheap and good the bifocal and progressive glasses on line?

---

Where have cheap and good the bifocal and progressive glasses on line? I thing buy bifocal and progressive glasses on line?
It is not advisable to buy progressive or bifocal lenses online. You will not know at what position the segment of heights should be set for any frames you chose online. These measurements are extremely important and need to be taken by someone who knows how to do this - an optical dispenser.  (+ info)

Has anybody heard of or sought alternative medicine for Bell's Palsy?

---

I have had Bell's PAlsy for 3 years now. It was severe at first but now is about 70% recovered. I still have ear pain and my mouth is visibly droopy (a bit) I believe the nerves did not heal properly as my eye waters and partially closes when I smile. I'm tired of doing nothing and was interested in accupuncture, cupping or herbal remedies. I heard that in China there are many 'ancient' treatments. Can anybody help? Thanks!
Try Edgar Cayce's wet cell appliance, medically known as iontophoresis. Alternate gold chloride(nerve regeneration) and colloidal silver(kills or weakens bacteria and viruses-most common cause of Bell's Palsy). Contact the A.R.E. Clinic(757-428-3588). A TENS unit or similiar muscle-nerve stimulator, massage with a vibrator, and a heating pad will also help.Supplements that help are vitamins(whole complex-antioxidants and nerve support) and Flaxseed oil and fish oil, both for external massage, and, as capsules for internal use to fight inflammation. Vinpocetine/Gingka Biloba tablets improve blood flow for nerve support.Aloe Vera Juice(allantoin in the juice, doubles to triples cell division, providing nerve support) as a massage and/or internal use, may be of benifit. Hydrocortisone cream melted in 99.99% liquid DMSO can be massaged into and around the ear to fight inflammation-use caution and do NOT use more than 2-3 days, then lay off for a week. All of the above are WELL DOCUMENTED, not hearsay.Clyde Nassif, CMA,Holistic Consultant, www.naturescorner.com  (+ info)

What is a good paying job for people with cerebral palsy?

---

I have cerebral palsy And i would like to know what is few a good paying job that i could do for years. I want to have a profession that at least pays 50-60k a yr or more. Currently i am a junior in high School and do not have any clue on what a good Career for me would be. Remember I have Mild Cerebral Palsy and want to make enough to live comfortable
My hubby has CP and has a good job with the government.

Don't let anyone tell u that u cant do this or that because u have cp. The doctors told my hubby's parents that he may not for some amount of years,or go to school,graduate, marry, have kids, hold a job, lots of thing. he did ALL this because he did not let people tell him that he could not do them. He even has two kids and he is the bread winner of his family. he make enough to send his kids to private school and take care of his wife's medical bills cause i have epilepsy. I don't let ppl tell me no either.

Anyway, go to college after high school and get your degree in what your interested in. Don't think of what job might take u, go for the degree that u like. When u are finished getting that degree go look for that job and don't let ppl tell u no u cant have it. Find a way u can get a job in that field. Don't shout or demand that u will get this or that just be confident. do research, it helps. It is good that u are looking into this now.Look into places in your field that have disabled ppl already there or have accommodations for the disabled like ramps and accessible bathrooms. Accommodation's that are up to really nice level not something that was just put together to make it accessible.

how can i stress it. go with confidence, don't let people tell u no!

Good luck in the future  (+ info)
