And I don't mean BBQ fell over the cat box cover on my left side..... the less hurt side ( I mean over the years ) except for my ribs ... hurt them again nothing broken learned the old lift your arms thing early so I am on the mend but hurting

Sorry to hear that, themi01. Take care of yourself and hopefully they'll start feeling better soon.

The "lift your arms thing"?

Yeah if you can lift your arms above your head your ribs are just bruised

OK, I thought it may be a quick and dirty re-alignment technique.

But can you lift yourself up off the ground, using nothing but your arms?

Lil is he being mainstreamed or is it more severe than that ..... as you prob can tell from my pics if I didn't tell you you'd probably never guess..... As far as you kisses go that means you nipples would be down around my .......... Oh my

He is has always mainstreamed. He is nondistinguishable (sp? word?) from his peers in almost all regards. He has right side hemiplegia that presented as lack of use and hypertonic right arm and no use of right leg, as a bambino. Basically every pic I have of him til he was like 3 has his right arm/hand curled up by his shoulder. We did OT/PT/Speech 3 x a week each for 4 years and worked hard at home. He has no cognitive issues (gifted- smart ass even) only the physical 1 sidedness which now presents as weakness. Now he is into karate and a green stripe in Kenpo. He fights black belts every Friday night. He is SUPER clutzy from the balance issues (still falls down if he looks straight upwards) and he went through a alot of challenges but as time goes by he understands himself more. He never uses it as a crutch to not do something, only as a reason to work harder to accomplish it. The Dr. said he was born to be right handed but he self adapted left and was a wicked lefty soccer player but could not keep up as the fields got larger and they wanted to play him more. His achilles just could not take it. So he switched to martial arts and it has changed his life, his belief in his self. He's amazing. He doesn't really know it yet but he is. Being 13 does that to you.

What flavor of CP do you have?

well Himself is having problems with calculus

and my particular flavor is a hole in the left side of the brain leading to right side issues I was fortunate than most my age I went to kindergarten and first grade in a "special school " with the daughter of a NY Yankee though by choice I repeated first grade in a mainstream school so I'm sure we all had special attention at the time

I said right but his is left as well. Right side weakness, coordination, emotions, and speech.
