Living with Cerebral Palsy

Although I don’t intend the blog to be solely about CP diet and exercise, it’s a big concern with all of us, especially as we age. Many of us are getting older, and our doctors are watching us sail into unchartered territory. For instance, I am the only patient my doctor has with cerebral palsy. Add crohn’s disease to that, and she has to look a few things up.

So, in response to my plea for blogging ideas, (what my readers what to read) Greg sent me some information on his site, as well as plugging this site. He posted a blog about inspirational people with cerebral palsy. I am probably the least athletic person on the planet; but, I am honored that he thinks I am inspirational.

Greg and Kristen

Greg’s site is dedicated to healthy living. He just happens to also have a mild case of cerebral palsy. But, it doesn’t stop him from doing much of anything. He talks about people that run marathons and master other athletic feats, even with CP.

Greg is a vegan. Thus, the title The Casual Vegan. For those of you unfamiliar with the term, a vegan doesn’t eat any animal products like milk, eggs, cheese, etc. It’s like being a vegetarian+. With great care, to ensure getting all of the daily required nutrition, it’s a very healthy lifestyle.

You may want to snag one of these links, and give his site a visit. You might just be inspired to begin a lifetime of healthy living with cerebral palsy.
