NUSAJAYA: Eight-year-old cerebral palsy patient Mok Swee Yeng has always wanted to walk and run around like a normal child but her movements were restricted by her condition since she was two. She could only rely on her grandmother, who takes care of her daily and carries her everywhere, to go to the bathroom and move around. But Swee Yengs dreams would soon come true as she underwent orthopaedic surgery sponsored by Columbia Asia Hospital here recently to tune the muscles around her knees to enable her to walk normally. Two consultant orthopaedic surgeons and two consultant anaesthetics successfully conducted the 90-minute procedure. Swee Yengs mother Wong Poi Poi, 25, said she heaved a sigh of relieve after seeing her daughter being wheeled out of the operating theatre. When she gained conscious, she kept crying in pain and I feel my heart breaking and could not help but cry with her. But at the same time I am glad that she will be able to run around like a normal child soon, she said. Swee Yengs grandmother Lee Choy Kheng, 57, who takes care of Swee Yeng by herself while Wong works in Kuala Lumpur as a make-up artist, said … Continue reading →

Megan was born 10 weeks premature and has cerebral palsy and spastic diplegia. The Cockermouth School pupils condition means she has trouble walking and has poor co-ordination. She uses a walking frame, stick or wheelchair to get around but would love a bicycle. In 2008 she had an operation to straighten her right foot but the results were not what the family had expected. Kerrie, 35, said Megans confidence took a turn for the worse and she took months to recover. Now Kerrie wants to raise money so that Megan, who has a twin sister Leah, can have stem cell treatment only available … Continue reading →

The organisers of the Hope For Georgia campaign revealed this week that the target amount has now been reached and the toddler will be having the operation in the new year.

Courtesy of highlands.edu The diagnosis of a neurological disease can represent what many patients see as a point of no return, but research published on Thursday, Oct. 25 by UR scientists on stem cell therapy points toward a potential for lessening the severity of the outcomes of these diagnoses. The research, which was published in the journal Science, was conducted by UR researchers Steve Goldman, Maiken Nedergaard and Martha Windrem, addresses stem cells capable of transforming into the brains two main support cells, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. The latter is lost in a family of neurological diseases classified as myelin disorders. Myelin disorders include Multiple Sclerosis, Cerebral Palsy and Tay-Sachs disease, among others. These diseases are well known for being life-altering, so research with implications for dampening their effects will have an important impact on patients and their families once brought to the practical level. This particular type of cell therapy would rely on programming stem cells to propagate glial progenitor cells. Progenitor cells then give rise to oligodendrocytes, which insulate neurons with a fatty substance called myelin. In total, this process ensures the speed and efficiency of neuronal communication. Without myelin, nerve communication throughout the body becomes weakened, which is … Continue reading →

By LORI TUCKER 6 News Anchor/Reporter KNOXVILLE (WATE) - Many people associate Botox with wrinkle treatment, but the medicine is also used to treat migraines and neck pain. Doctors at East Tennessee Children's Hospital Rehabilitation Center have used it to help children with cerebral palsy. Dr. Nadine Trainer has been giving Brad Gandy injections in his legs. The Madisonville teen has cerebral palsy and started getting Botox injections when he was only three years old. "It's extremely helpful," Brad said. "When I was younger I used to cry a lot more because I wasn't ready for it, I guess. But now as you get older, you start to think of what this really does for you." Botox makes Brad more comfortable in his wheelchair. "It has been the very best thing for us," Brad's mother, Sandra, said. "His legs would be extremely tight and then after he would have the shot, after about two or three weeks, then they were much more relaxed." Unlike cosmetic use which typically lasts a few months, Botox therapy in patients with spastic muscles can last much longer between injections. "If I change a muscle that's preventing the arm to move, for example, and now … Continue reading →
