Cerebral Palsy in babies

To the mothers of infants that are effected by Cerebral Palsy,
The cause of Cerebral Palsy is simply brain damage

Cerebral palsy is caused by an injury to the brain before, during, or shortly after birth. In many cases, no one knows for sure what caused the brain injury or what may have been done to prevent the injury. A large number of factors which can injure the developing brain may produce cerebral palsy. In general, however, there are two problems that can cause cerebral palsy:

1. Failure of the brain to develop properly (developmental brain malformation)
2. Neurological damage to the child's developing brain
