So happy to see this! My Daughter has Spastic triplegia CP too and is going to have her SDR soon at UofM. She's also 4.5 ^_^. We don't have a date yet, but we're on the waiting list. Thank you for sharing this! Go Charlie!

Everybody walks differently not everybody with Sunbury Park palsy is going to look the same Don't pretend that someone that someone symptoms of spastic CP will go away by just a simple surgery I mean yes the child can make progress by the surgery but you know I think that a child's body should be respected for me I don't think that's right
