is cerebral palsy patient is curable?

Cerebral palsy though not curable has a much better prognosis now than before. From your question your child appears to have hemiplegic cerebral palsy which has a better prognosis.\n\nYou have to see a Physiatrist/physiotherapist and watch the exercises being done and train your child at home. The exercises will be changed in a step by step manner depending on the progress your child is making. She also needs to see lots of colors, hear lots of sound and music.,made to feel different objects and textures. This will require a lot of patience and effort on your part but I'm sure that eventually the outcome will be good.

Cerebral palsy refers to a group of chronic conditions affecting body movement and muscle coordination.  Oxygen deprivation or trauma to the head during labor and delivery are two of the primary causes of cerebral palsy and can occur due for several reasons, including a delivery complication or doctor error.  If the infant does not get enough oxygen the brain can be injured. Faulty development or damage to motor areas in the brain disrupt the brain's ability to adequately control movement and posture. \nIF YOU THINK YOU HAVE A CASE,CONTACT A LAWYER IN YOUR AREA.

Funny you should ask.  I have been answering a lot of questions here, but two years ago I was in exactly the same situation as you are now.  My wife (28 at the time) was in a car accident and ended up with TBI.  I was desperate to hear some stories, since I knew the neurosurgeons would never commit to any prognosis.  My wife stayed in a coma for 9 days and then slowly started waking up.  Initially, she had difficult talking, concentrating, walking etc, but over the course of six weeks, her physical therapists got her back to a great shape.  She continued her recovery and today the accident is just a memory. She is back to herself 100% and we just had a baby boy.  So I want to give you some hope.  The thing with TBI is that it is very unpredictible.  Her MRI looked quite bad apparently (she had the dreaded diffuse axonal injury) and yet she recovered fully.  I'd say she was back to 90% at six months and has been at 100% since then.  In retrospect, there were two important things.  She had excellent neurosurgical care that made sure the intracranial pressure never got too high.  I don't know how recent your daughter's accident was, but if it is days, that is absolutely the key thing.  Inquire about those pressures if you can.  The second thing was a comprehensive physical, speech and occupational therapy program.  Make sure your daughter gets the best.  \n\nAll the best to you and your daughter and never loose any hope!

If truely the diagnosis is a mild stroke,  the area that was damage will never be fixed.  However, please remember that the brain is an incredible organ.  People who have had strokes in the past whether it affected there body, speech, swallow, or memory have rehab to regain some function back.

Beware of any treatment called a 'miracle cure'... Autism is such a pervasive disorder, that a single drug is unlikely to ever 'cure it'. It may be that some of the symptoms may be reduced, but considering that autism affects the development of a child's brain, it is unlikely that anything (in the near future) will be able to 'undo' developmental pathogenenes. \n\nThis article shows the current state of mind concerning 'miracle drugs'\n\nNovel treatments for autistic spectrum disorders.\n\nLevy SE, Hyman SL.\n\nChildren's Seashore House, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, Philadelphia, 1914, USA. Levys@email.chop.edu\n\nIn no area of developmental pediatric practice is there more controversy regarding the choice of treatment than related to children with autistic spectrum disorders (ASD). Complementary and alternative medical therapies (CAM) are often elected because they are perceived as treating the cause of symptoms rather than the symptoms themselves. CAM used for autism can be divided by proposed mechanism: immune modulation, gastrointestinal, supplements that affect neurotransmitter function, and nonbiologic intervention. Secretin as a therapy for autism is discussed as an example of how a clinical observation rapidly grew to a widespread treatment before well-designed studies demonstrated absence of effect. The plausibility for behavioral effect was not substantiated by clinical studies. CAM used for treatment of autism is examined in terms of rationale, evidence of efficacy, side effects, and additional commentary. Families and clinicians need access to well-designed clinical evidence to assist them in choice of therapies.

Part 2: medical management.\n\nKidd PM.\n\nAutism and allied autistic spectrum disorders (ASD) present myriad behavioral, clinical, and biochemical abnormalities. Parental participation, advanced testing protocols, and eclectic treatment strategies have driven progress toward cure. Behavioral modification and structured education are beneficial but insufficient. Dietary restrictions, including removal of milk and other casein dairy products, wheat and other gluten sources, sugar, chocolate, preservatives, and food coloring are beneficial and prerequisite to benefit from other interventions. Individualized IgG or IgE testing can identify other troublesome foods but not non-immune mediated food sensitivities. Gastrointestinal improvement rests on controlling Candida and other parasites, and using probiotic bacteria and nutrients to correct dysbiosis and decrease gut permeability. Detoxification of mercury and other heavy metals by DMSA/DMPS chelation can have marked benefit. Documented sulfoxidation-sulfation inadequacies call for sulfur-sulfhydryl repletion and other liver p450 support. Many nutrient supplements are beneficial and well tolerated, including dimethylglycine (DMG) and a combination of pyridoxine (vitamin B6) and magnesium, both of which benefit roughly half of ASD cases. Vitamins A, B3, C, and folic acid; the minerals calcium and zinc; cod liver oil; and digestive enzymes, all offer benefit. Secretin, a triggering factor for digestion, is presently under investigation. Immune therapies (pentoxifyllin, intravenous immunoglobulin, transfer factor, and colostrum) benefit selected cases. Long-chain omega-3 fatty acids offer great promise. Current pharmaceuticals fail to benefit the primary symptoms and can have marked adverse effects. Individualized, in-depth clinical and laboratory assessments and integrative parent-physician-scientist cooperation are the keys to successful ASD management.\n\n\nConcerning chelation therapy, although it may well be effective in some cases, it has some serious risks: one boy died during threatment: http://www.post-gazette.co

I would not limit yourself to homeopathic approaches.  I would look for a doctor with a holistic approach to treating patients.  These could be medical doctors, Chiropractors, osteopaths, or naturopaths.  There are many approaches, depending on lab tests and physical examination findings, that can help to support the neurological tissues.  Look for a company on the web called Standard Process.  They have high quality whole-food vitamin products and they are only sell them through doctors.  You should be able to find a doctor in your area who utilizes their products be contacting the company.

Children who have a physical disability?

Lots of them need control subjects. For example, a study on walking biomechanics in subjects with cerebral palsy might need to also get data for those who don't have cerebral palsy and who have more typical walking patterns, so that they can compare the data for the two groups and see what exactly is different for those with cerebral palsy.

Yes, he is. I thought it was kind of him to disclose this information as I'm sure it gave hope to other people with this challenge. A lot of kids have gone without understanding what was going on and made to feel stupid.  With proper diagnosis most people can be helped with this challenge in life.

The spinal cord can heal to some extent in some cases, but it depends on the severity.  For instance, Christopher Reeve had a severe spinal cord injury, termed "complete" or ASIA Class A with very little chance of meaningful recovery.  However, in some less severe cases there is a chance of significant recovery.  There are cases of people initially paralyzed completely from the neck down who, after recovery, can walk.  However, in virtually all these cases, these patients had, at the time of initial preservation, at the very least some sensation below the level of injury indicating an "incomplete" lesion.  For more information, try the American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA).

Good question!\nI just know there are treatments that consist of different things for a patient to go threw at the last stage. But of course at the last stage, It's less than a 50% chance to cure it.

Disabilities are varied and different. I am sure you aware that the late Christopher Reeve was Paralyzed, he had a physical disability. That is the most obvious of the disabilities. Others are Blindness, Deafness, Arthritis, etc. Then there are "hidden" disabilities i.e. Learning Disabilities such as Dyslexia and Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD/ADHD),there is also Mental Illness such as Depression, Bi-polar Disorder, etc. More than 10% of the US population have some kind of disability or another.
