Few things are more tragic than when a baby is born into this world with a birth injury, such as cerebral palsy. These injuries are not the fault of the child, yet he or she will have to live with the consequences for the rest of their lives. Birth injuries can seriously affect the ability of a child to live a typical life, creating significant barriers for their social, academic, and professional life. However, these barriers are surmountable, given the proper encouragement and health care, and many children who were injured at birth go on to live fulfilling, normal lives. While some birth injuries are unpreventable, injuries caused by the negligence of a doctor or hospital are unacceptable.<\/p>\n
