Mixed Cerebral Palsy: media type="youtube" key="yzxGCeFn0-4" height="390" width="480" "I  have a mix between athetoid cerebral palsy (causes wiggly, uncontrollable movements) & spastic quad cerebral palsy (causes very tight muscles). cerebral palsy is caused by damage to the cerebrum (the part of the brain that controls muscle movements). when i was being born, something blocked my airway & the lack of oxygen caused brain damage. i also had head trauma, which caused bleeding in the brain. i have no balance but i can walk w/ someone holding me. many people assume that i 'm mentally challenged, when in fact i 'm NOT."
