Patryk

   Hi!
   Yesterday, after a (too) long summer break I met my friend Patric. I got to know him about a year ago, when I started my voluntary work at "Stowarzyszenie Rodziców Dzieci z Porażeniem Mózgowym".
   Patric is now 13 years old, he suffers from cerebral palsy since early childhood. Cerebral palsy is a name of group of permanent move disorders and physical disabilities caused by damage of developing brain during pregnancy, birth or early childhood. Children with CP also very often have problems with communication because of speach and language disorders.
   At first I found it difficult to communicate with Patric, but now, since we stay in touch for about a year, our conversations become more and more fluent. This year, I spend with him at least an hour in a week.
