In this special episode from the AACPDM annual meeting, Belinda Deramore Denver talks about vision in CP and her current work to better understand how children use their vision to help intervene early and with the right interventions.
Welcome to That Mom With CP-a space created to celebrate and support mothers with cerebral palsy through shared stories, adaptive parenting tips, and honest conversations about self-care and disability.
Discover how living with cerebral palsy has made me a more patient, adaptable, and intentional mom—and why disability can be a strength, not a setback.
An honest, uplifting look at motherhood with CP — what I feared, what I learned, and how becoming a disabled mom became my greatest strength.
We got the diagnosis of Cerebral Palsy when Lelia was 18 months. I was really happy, as we didn’t know what was wrong with her before then. She had low tone. She couldn’t roll over. She couldn’t sit up. Of course she didn’t walk. The diagnosis gave it a name, something I could work with, and I became a kind of vigilante mother, determined to get the best care for my daughter.
