Prepare the house: It sounds as though you have some paralysis with the cerebral palsy. The best way to stay healthy is to prepare your new housed in such a way that it accommodates you. Special ramps, lifts, railings, supports will make life easier. Make sure that you have access to urgent medical help if needed.
