-Different User Answer:
The PS was not significant, much less relevant, so I removed it.
But, in all sincerity.
A person with cerebral palsy has a variance in life. It depends as well, what other illnesses or disabilities that accompany it. My sister has cerebral palsy and hydrocephalus, leaving her verbally limited, blind, and with the inability to walk.
Doctors would estimate life spans, in this case 1-2 weeks. She is 23 years old now.
There are many others I have encountered, but in reality. You cannot put a set time for them to live. They will carry on like the rest of us, but depending on the extremity of their illness, the length of time will be different.
