Im 23 yrs old now,and i have CP .

Hi John 

I don't know the answer as every person with CP​ is different . It depends how CP has affected you but it would be worth to consult with your GP and medical consultants. Some surgeries/ treatments and therapies have helped people in the past .

Conductive edcucation might be also useful for the adults with CP. 

Thanks

I would speak to your  doctor as I 
was walking 
think you would need medical advise my dr did say if i didn't have the operation I wouldn't be walking

In our country it's impossible,
If only i am a rich man.
