In Search of Dignity: One Family Caring for Their Child's Incontinence
Coelho, Amy
Exceptional Parent, v39 n5 p92-93 May 2009
This article shares a story of a family with a child who has a spastic quadriplegia cerebral palsy, a form of cerebral palsy (CP) that affects all four limbs and torso with debilitating muscle dysfunction. It describes how the family cares for their child's incontinence. It also shares the experience of the child's mother, Kathy, who attributes her success in managing her son's incontinence to persistence and a willingness to simply try as many options as possible until she found one that worked for her and her son.
