TAP/KNOCKING

KNOCK, KNOCK!!! HI CAN YOU COME DO YOUR JOB???
That me, knocking on my body 24/7 365 days. Now you might think I’m crazy. Why is she betting herself up? Before you say you’re crazy let me explain.
When you have Cerebral Palsy, you sensor on like a 30sec delay because it’s that not the brain not doing job because it is, just on a delay because the impaired in the brain from the Cerebral Palsy (I’m not say anything we all know that are brains are impaired from Cerebral Palsy, (so please don’t get offended by what I’m saying or trying to say.)   
All my lift my mom and my PT have said if only “ I can type myself or if you carry full length mirror You would be doing what you should be doing” Well that not going to happen. A few weeks ago my trainer show me the tapping/knocking idea. (well I’m sure people have taught me all my life but I’m just starting to wise my lazy ass up and listening, it must be the fact that after 40 yrs I’m at the listening point and slowing down point in my life LOL).
So, what the tapping/knocking idea. It simple because our brain sensor take a few second longer then a brain without impairments to make things go a little quicker just tap or knock on the area that you want to work. This is like a person waking you up from a deep sleep, you are basally startled the mussel that you want to work to say “COME OUT AND DO YOUR JOB OR I’M GOING TO FALL ON MY ASS”
How hard and how long do I have to do this? It is like starting a car. You just want tap the gas so the car turns over because if you turn the key to much you are going to flood the car. (yea I don’t drive but I know the inside of a engine, dad girl, just leave him holding a 1000 lb engine and run to the bathroom you will never live it down LOL). All you need to do it until you feel that mussel “SAY OK I’M UP, NOW WHAT” Then go on with moving that mussel.

I hope you know I only use hip because that the weak part on me but if your hemi and trying to get your arm moving then use the tap/knock idea on that.

I found myself within him

" Holding hands is a promise to one another, just for a moment the two of you don’t have to face the word alone " - From Quote on diary.me This what I always hoped to find in a partner I would choose to give myself to. For me, it just happen later in life and a way I never thought it would.  It all started three years ago, when I starting a journey to find who I was as an adult with Cerebral Palsy. I was told from a friend if you type "Cerebral Palsy" in Facebook seach, you would find a whole world on Facebook of different groups for people with Cerebral Palsy. After doing this for awhile I got the idea of starting my own Facebook group with the things I knew about Cerebral Palsy and the things I wanted to know.  As I was doing some research, I came across a story on mycpchild.org It was a story about a man with Cerebral Palsy that was deaf. The story hit me like a bolt of lightning and something stirred inside as I read about Jack Runser. With all the odds up agai...

GIVING MYSELF A PURPSE

Hi everyone the work started off with a bang yesterday with NATIONAL CEREBRAL PALSY DAY, I hope everyone had a great special day. Today is another special day for myself in the Cerebral Palsy Community, as it is my 3rd anniversary of taking a big step in the community. I started what was first called WORKOUT WITH CEREBRAL PALSY (CP). Let me first tell you about what lead me to do this. My whole life I had trouble seeing the Cerebral Palsy within myself from basically being the first child with known physical disability in the school system I grow up in. This meant my family and I had to fight for every little think I needed have when I was growing up in a quite back woods cow town in the middle of no vilely CT, since that it has got bigger and disabled friendly because my family and I and the evolution of all the “disability laws” (use “disability laws” loosely because they still need a lot of improvement as far as my of you guys and I’m concern.) To say it was a struggle would be ...

MY JOURNEY TO FINE WHO I AM AS A ADUT WITH CP

After, three years on this journey of mine to understand apart of myself better. After many groups, pages, blogs. Making friendship that will last a lifetime or last a moment in time. After, trying so hard to please people but in the end feeling that I myself had to be like others when I always told others to be themselves. I’m doing what is going make me happy and give me self-respect. I have learned and care me a little piece of everyone I have come across. I also may not I seen eye to eye with everyone I met along the way (but that’s life) It does not that I don’t have respect each and every one of you. I spent two weeks in January trying to doing something that I wasn’t very good at and realize as much everyone would to be good at everything we are needed where at strength lies. People have been telling me this all a long but like   a lot of people in life I have attended school of hard knocks. It’s just when you have something against you to being with such as Cerebral Pals...
