Cerebral Palsy

Cerebral Palsy
Cerebral palsy is a brain disorder that can cause many problems in people. These problems could be not being able to relax your muscles, lack of balance, or fluttering your legs at random times. There are three types of Cerebral Palsy. They are Spastic, Athetoid, and Ataxic. The most common of the three types is Spastic. Spastic CP makes it so the patient can not relax their muscles. There muscles are always stiff. Athetoid CP causes people to not be able to control their muscles. People with this type at any time could move their legs or arms. Ataxic CP causes people to be shaky with their balance and coordination. Cerebral Palsy can affect a persons ability to walk, talk, eat, or move the way that other people do. CP can be mild or severe like most diseases. Depending on how much of the brain is affected rates the severeness. In most cases doctors do not know the cause of Cerebral Palsy. Doctors do know that the damage to the brain is caused when a baby is very young. Diagnosis is usually very early in life. CP doesn't progress, but how it affects a person can change as a person grows older and lives on their own. Usually the best way to manage CP is a combination of parents, teachers, doctors, and therapists. If you know someone that has CP the best thing that you can do for them is to treat that person like you would anyone else. If they need a little extra help then give it to them, but don't make a big deal about it. Also try and include them in on things that you are doing. There is no cure for CP so being there for those who have it is the best way to give them support.
These are the types of CP and what they affect and what part of the brain that they affect.

Glow In the Dark Easter Bunny

Dear Nate Haslam,
It's me the Easter Bunny. I just wanted to write a letter to you to make sure that your school makes the right choice for the dessert dance theme. Glow in the dark is the obvious choice. I think that over the years delivering eggs to you I have found that your class of students tends to like very strangely colored eggs. I think that this will directly translate into your personality.
P.S. I painted myself glow in the dark to support the campaign.
Love,
          The Easter Bunny

GLOW IN THE DARK

GLOW IN THE DARK IS THE WAY TO GO
          For this years dessert dance we are narrowed down to three options. They are Never land, a night in Hawaii, or Glow in the dark. I think that this is an obvious choice. Never land and a night in Hawaii are just your average day themes. I think that if our class wants to be remembered at the middle school that the glow in the dark theme will leave a great memory in the teacher's minds. This theme best suits our class because we like to do things out of the normal. This theme would suit our class way better than the other two. My vision for decorations are black lights so that we glow, Christmas lights like at all the dances, or anything white on the walls so that it will glow. For the photo booth I am thinking that we could photo shop my friend Tyrone the glowing T-Rex into the back of the pictures. Personally I could help the night be special by helping set up decorations or I could set up Tyrone in the photo booth. Everyone wants a picture with a glowing T-Rex. This is an obvious choice, don't make the wrong choice or you'll regret it. Vote for glow in the Dark!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
