     Its purpose would be primarily to :

    * Our purpose in forming a support group would be to provide an ideal environment where parents-caregivers can receive emotional/physical support.

    * share information-medical, resources, life skill strategies

    * Essentially a zone where one has somebody to talk to who understands.

    Hey, just stumbled across your blog. This support group sounds like a great idea! I know it can be so much harder to feel like you're going through it alone. One website I've found to be helpful as well as a great link to the CP community is Cerebral Palsy Family Network. Their facebook page is another great way to connect to other families affected by CP. Anyway, hope you find it helpful! Good luck :)
