What does a diagnosis of cerebral palsy mean? Actually it's sort of an umbrella term. A person with cerebral palsy has damage to the cerebellum, resulting in difficulty with his or her muscles. The most common kind of cerebral palsy is called spastic; it involves muscles that are tight.
Here is Keaton. He turns five next month. Doesn't he have a sweet little face? Keaton has CP and internal hydrocephalus.

Ryland, with his dark hair and dark eyes, has some Roma heritage. He has CP, but he can walk on his own and even climb up the ladder to a playground slide!

This beautiful girl is Elena. Although she is visually impaired, her eyes seem to be looking into beautiful things!

And look at Stellan! What beautiful dark eyes!

He is in the same orphanage as Valentin, and looks almost as though he could be his younger brother. Stellan will be three next month. *
They all have CP. They all need families. They are all so loved by God.
*friday, 24 June -- Stellan's profile currently isn't viewable on Reece's Rainbow, because the laws about international adoption are being revised in his country. I didn't anticipate that when I wrote about him! But prayers for him are still important!
