Question

My colleague’s sister’s son was born prematurely and suffered from cerebral palsy due to hypoxia at birth. He cannot walk, roll, or crawl; his right arm is not flexible and often moves backward. He is in good spirits and has a normal appetite. The sleep of my colleague’s sister’s son is also normal.

Answer

Hello, based on experience, this situation is not too severe. Firstly, if the child is under hospital treatment, the doctor should communicate with the child warmly during daily rounds to encourage them. Parents should also make it a habit to talk and chat with the patient to make them feel that this world has not abandoned them. Secondly, when communicating with the child, it is advisable to use some methods of interaction, such as asking specific questions to help the child gradually understand and always pay attention to the child’s inner thoughts to assist them. It is recommended that you maintain a normal diet for three meals a day, develop good daily habits in your daily life, avoid overtime work, do not stay up late, and do not overwork.
