We have been asked: "I have had Cerebral Palsy since Birth. I am now 78 Years old and will be 79 in July. Could you tell me if I am the oldest person with thus condition. If not can you tell me the age of the longest living survivor of this condition?"

I think the oldest person we interviewed for Speaking for Ourselves was Gordon Taylor, who was born in 1924 and was interviewed in 2006 when he was 82.
