Collaborative Post¦ You’ve likely heard of Cerebral Palsy, which is also known as CP. CP occurs when a baby suffers a lack of oxygen during the delivery process of birth. Because of this lack of oxygen, also known as hypoxia, a baby can suffer brain defects. This may not be noticeable at first, but ultimately it means that a baby can lack development, depending on the severity of the oxygen deprivation.
For most new parents, the idea of bringing a child into the world is like none other. Although it may be a daunting experience at first, it’s also incredibly exciting and joyous. However, for a birth to be overshadowed by CP, it can be upsetting and confusing, to say the least. As a result of CP, many children may result in having special needs for the rest of their lives, which can have a significant impact on themselves and any family. CP is often a consequence of poor medical practice, but fortunately, families can seek compensation for this lifelong disability.
