What is the life expectancy of cerebral palsy?

FAQ

Cerebral palsy itself is not a fatal condition, so there is no specific life expectancy associated with it. People with cerebral palsy can have a normal life expectancy if they receive appropriate medical care and support. However, people with severe forms of cerebral palsy may have other health problems or disabilities that can affect their life expectancy. For example, individuals with cerebral palsy may have respiratory problems, seizures, or other medical conditions that can affect their overall health and well-being. It is important for individuals with cerebral palsy to receive ongoing medical care and support to manage any associated health problems and maximize their quality of life.
