Living with CP: the early years part 8.

My first word.

Hello everyone. I hope you all are having a great day today. After my Mother and Grandma got home from the test that day, My Grandma told my Mother “don't believe anything that doctor said”. I want to backup a little. You see, my Mother worked and after they found out I had Cerebral Palsy, my Grandma told my Mother she would quit her job and take care of me because they didn't know how I would act in a daycare. After the doctor told them I probably would not ever talk, my Grandma did not like that. Everyday for about 6 months when we got up, Grandma would get an egg and put it on my table on my highchair and we would roll it around and everything else with that egg you can think of. Then one day before Grandma could get the egg out, I said “egg.” Do you think anyone believed my Grandma when she told them?
