In this section I have described various disabilities. Follow each link to learn stats for that disability (for example: definition; cause; characteristics). So far the disabilities I have provided information for are:

• Autism/Pervasive Developmental Disorder
• Cerebral Palsy
• Cornelia DeLange Syndrome
• Down Syndrome
• Epilepsy (although not a disability, often times other conditions include epilepsy or seizures)
• Fragile X Syndrome
• Muscular Dystrophy
• Rett Syndrome
• Spina Bifida
• And a section containing miscellaneous disabilities.

Please read this disclaimer.
I am working on developing pages for more disabilities that I haven't quite decided on yet. Any suggestions? What would you like to see posted? Send any suggestions along and I'll try my best to post information about it.


Things to Know:

• Wheelchair Etiquette
  
• ASL (American Sign Language) Manual Alphabet
• Back Care and Lifting

Looking for information on a specific disability? Want a personal response from someone who has been there? Post it in the Message Board!

Thanks for visiting! Come back soon! And remember to sign my guestbook!
