“When my baby didn’t sit up or crawl like other children, I told myself, ‘Maybe they just need more time.’ But as days turned into months, I noticed their little hands felt stiff, and walking seemed so hard for them. I watched other children run freely while mine struggled to take even a few steps. The doctors called it Cerebral Palsy — a condition that affects movement and muscle control. As a parent, it broke my heart to see the world demand speed from my child when all they needed was patience, love, and support."

  • Symptoms of CP (as per ICD-11)
    • Persistent difficulty with movement, posture, or muscle control from early childhood.
    • Abnormal muscle tone – either stiff and tight (spasticity) or unusually floppy (hypotonia).
    • Delayed motor milestones – sitting, crawling, or walking later than expected.
    • Involuntary or jerky movements (dyskinesia).
    • Problems with balance and coordination (ataxia).
    • Weakness on one side of the body (hemiplegia) or both legs/arms (diplegia, quadriplegia).
