My 3.5 year old daughter has been recently been diagnosed with diplegia cerebral palsy. Still don't think we have the full diagnosis as speech very delayed and problems with eating/drinking. Pushing for answers as we have from day one. Glad to have found this support group

Hi @SherylStone
Welcome to the community, I have moved your post to the parents and carers category, have a read through these posts and chat with other parents in a similiar situation.
Have you seen our videos about being a parent to a disabled child?
