![]() Author has written 9 stories for Misc. Tv Shows, All My Children, South of Nowhere, and Heartland. I have Spastic quadriplegia. It's a form of Cerebral Palsy. So basically I type with 1 finger. Shocking I know. Here's the definition of the disability that I have even though I somehow skipped Mental Retardation. Spastic quadriplegia is the most severe from of cerebral palsy in which all four limbs and the trunk are affected. Children with spastic quadriplegia usually have several compounded disabilities including mental retardation, problems with muscles that control the mouth and tongue, and difficulty in speaking. Some children with quadriplegia also suffer from hemiparetic tremors; an uncontrollable shaking that affects the limbs on one side of the body and impairs normal movement. A common problem with children suffering from quadriplegia is fluid buildup. Diuretics and steroids are medications administered to decrease any buildup of fluid in the spine that is caused by leakage from dead cells. Additional therapies and surgery are often performed to relieve some symptoms of quadriplegia in cerebral palsy children. 4 wheels are my legs My left hand isn't able to do many things I use a device to talk to those who doesn't know me I have to live in this prison of body I've suffered trials I've been hurt many times |
