Any way you can: Cerebral palsy is a disorder in the control of your muscles. Learn how to control them any way you can. Use you muscles and joints as much as you can to keep them healthy. Therapists can help you. Surgery may be necessary, but may be avoided. Work on doing daily activities yourself without help. You may need modified clothing, utensils, toilet, etc.
