This past week in #CPChatNow was bustling as always. Members talked about acceptance of CP, aging with CP, and the importance of walking. This is #CPChatNow co-host, Devin Axtman, taking you along for the ride on this week’s recap. All aboard!

Stephen asked Zach when he accepted his CP and this led to a conversation about adjustment to disability:

Next, talk turned to a common topic among #CPChatNow members, aging with CP, after Chris shared an article about functional decline.

Finally, talk turned to the importance (or lack thereof) of walking. Members discussed the importance of staying active while also listening to their body as aging happens.

This brings us to our Extend-The-Conversation Question: What are some aspects of functional decline you have noticed with CP and aging? Please share your answers in the comments.

Thanks for reading and please join us tonight on Twitter at #CPChatNow.
