ZEB MAUNEY Karafceik's Motker (Summary: Karabeth, after un der a second operation at Duke Hospital, returns to her home in Newport. Afflicted with cerebral palsy, she has spent much of her life among doctors and nurses and in hospitals. She was born pre maturely in November 1946 and when she failed to walk at the age most children do, her parents had her examined by a specialist and learned that a brain hemor rhage at birth had affected her ability to use her legs). The weather was 'terribly hot. Karabeth spent the day on the back porch which was the coolest spot to be found. Occasionally I would turn her on her storaaeh to rest her back. Her only article of clothing was a four-stringer. I only had one from the hospital but the next day Mary Catherine Millis made six for her. Delicious meals that were piping hot were brought (or us to enjoy. 1 didn't have to plan or eook our big meals for several days. Jen ny Lynn Garner brought Karabeth a lovely vase of flowers with .1 real butterfly that she had mounted on the flowers. Friends brought her so many things that she could play with lying down. Dode Henderson kept her in ice cresm. Others brought everything you could think of to eat. Zeb made her a desk that we could clamp on her bed so that she could read or writ'1 "n it. Karabeth lay flat on her back in a cast on both legs with a spreader bar between that kept her feet a foot apart. ? She had the best time you have ever seen a child have. Children and grownups came to play with her. Everyone said that she laughs like it did her good. She has an ev er ready smile and a very heatry laugh. Karabeth's favorite past time was keeping a balloon and a beach ball in the air by continuous ly knocking it up. There were times when she would itch and be so miserable under her cast. Ther<? was nothing we could do to relieve the itching. During the night she would fight to turn on her side. Despite these two things, she was a little angel through it all. Zeb sawed the spreader bar off before we left to take her back to the hospital to have the cast re moved. This made her trip much more comfortable. We had an ap pointment for 10 a.m., but there was a misunderstanding and it was 2 p.m. before we saw the doctor. Once again we saw her legs. By this time the staff at the cerebral palsy hospital had learned to avoid the pain and cramps that followed the removal of a cast. After the cast was sawed off I put on tor day braces and lacked them. Karabeth's day braces are long leg braces attached to a pel vic band. ? She wore these for three days and nights locked at the hip and knee joints. On the fourth night I unlocked the braces and she slept with them unlocked again the fifth night. On the sixth night she slept in her night braces. She got along beautifully. She didn't have bfr crutches, but would walk along the wail and around furniture She has always had a great determination. Balance la Problem Karabeth's greatest difficulty has always been trying to balance her self, which she stilt has to over come. She haa hid many hard falls. Her head always seems to be the most vulnerable spot. She has had many knots, bruises and cuts. I wonder sometimes how her poor head stands it. She can take a very hard fall with real evidence and marks left, with out a tear. When she cries I know she has had a very bad fall. On the other hand, she has clear, good speech, a keen mind, and a Vital personal ity. She has never been shy and made friends very quickly, regard less of age. She is very tender hearted and will cry at the least sad thing she hears. Karabeth likes me to tell her about my girlhood days. I told her about an experience that I had in the first grade and shall never for get. 1 was preparing our lunch and telling about pulling down the branch of a small tree to get a glimpse of bird eggs i* a nest. The older children could see and were saying how pretty they were, but 1 couldn't see them. Just as I pulled down the branch the little eggs fell out. The teacher was right rehind me. She spanked me good. Karabeth started crying and cried until 1 couldn't stop her or get her to eat lunch. She has ?ever wanted to hear that again. About a week after the cast was removed, Zeb, Karabeth, and 1 went to Shelby to visit Zeb's par ents. Zeb's brother Hugh Wray, was home on vacation from New York City. He has always idolized Karabeth. Wo had a wonderful time. We brought Karabeth back by the hos pital in Durham on Saturday and had to leave her. The other chil jfcen w#e returning from their summer vacations. Weekly Sunday visits were re sumed. I thought I could see Kara beth improving faster than ever before. Soon Nov. 25 came and time to celebrate Karabeth's birthday. 1 got permission for Karabeth to come home for the weekend. Mom and Papoo Mauney came by Dur ham and brought her home. What a wonderful occasion! This was the first time she had had her crutches at home and could walk. She could hardly wait to go into every room. Everyone Comes Saturday wp gave her a big birth day party at the educational build inf. All the children, regardless of age, were invited. Everyone had a grand time and were so happy to see Kara both walking. j$he had the lest time of all. She was so happy to see her friends. | She got a mountain of presents. I never saw so many in my life. She had everything it seemed. The most lovely gifts, clothes, toys, books, a corsage made of money, banks, and more money to go in them. John and Jean Roden brought her a beautiful doll from Japan, Af-, ler the party was over, we went home and there the party contin ued until 10 p.m. Early Sunday morning we went to Raleigh to spend the day with Janie and Feasor. She had anoth er birthday party and dinner. We had such a happy time together. AH too quickly H was over and the time had come to take her back to the hospital. It always broke my heart. She was so exhausted from the exciting weekend she fell asleep and slept all the way to Dur ham. She went down the hall to supper like a brave little trooper. The saddest times for me were to go back to an empty house. Kar abeth's toys would be just where siie left them and the house was so dead and lonely. Shortly after Karabeth's birthday I was told at the hospital that Kara beth would be discharged Dec. 18. I could hardly believe it. I was so happy and thankful for what the staff had done for her. 1 thanked God for everything. What a won derful Christmas present! (Friday: The Christmas Play) Feb. 24 ?

Such acts become easy for them, because their mus cles work together. Their muscles do what they want them to do, be cause they have control of them. A child with cerebral palsy does not have control of all of his mus cles. As a result, he often finds it hard to do some of the most simple acts of everyday life. Another child with celebral palsy may not be able to walk straight. He seems to get off balance. He may stagger, reel and weave about. Still another child may have trouble with his throat and tongue. If he tries to talk, the sounds are often grunts and noises. The mus cles of his face may twist and work. Along with this, he may drool. Seeing a child "making faces," and hearing the sounds he makes, give some people a wrong idea. They connect such acts with feeble mindedness because some feeble minded children act that way. They may even think that all chil dren with cerebral palsy are feeble minded. This is not true. Some*of them are very bright, while some, it is true, are feeble-minded. But, you cannot tell this just by the way children with cerebral palsy look or act. Those who look and act the worst sometimes are the brightest. Mentally, the large num ber of them are about Ike other children. Is a child who has cerebral palsy always born with it? No. A great number of them are, but not all of them. Cerebral palsy can hap pen before birth, during birth and after birth. You can get a clue to what cere bral palsy is from the two words of its name. Cerebral means of the brain. To doctors, palsy ipeans a weakness or lack of control ol mus cles. So, cerebral palsy means a weakness or lack of control of mus cles due to some condition in the brain. Doctors speak of such a con ; article, Mrs. Lcota Hammer, pub alth Department, explains cerebral e treated). dition as "brain damage." This damage may result because some part of the brain did not grow or develop l>efore birth as it should. The way a baby grows be fore he is born is very complicated. Something may go wrong. Some thing may not grow fully or de velop right. For instance, a baby is bora with a clubfoot, or with a cleft palate, or some such defect. With the cerebral palsy child, the defect is in some part of the brain. Sometimes the brain is damaged while a baby is being born. This could be when the mother, has a hard labor. But all cerebral palsy cannot be blamed on long and hard labor. For one reason or another, it may happen even with an easy birth. Sometimes cerebrfel palsy can happen aft#r birth. For example, cerebral palsy has followed whoop ing cough, measles, and meningitis. In rare cases it can happen after a child has convulsions. And it has been brought about by an accident ?such as an automobile accident or a fall? in which the head is badly hurt. Sometimes It is the part we think and learn with. Often it is just one part of the brain that is damaged, or it may be more than one part. As would be expected, parents are apt to be very uphappy when it happans to be THEIR child who has cerebral palsy. It is also natural that they may even blame themselves ? feel that it is their fault. No parents can be blamed for this. And once parents realize they are not at fault, they can give their attention to improving the situation and getting as much help as they can; like the parent who said: "I will give my child as good a life aa passible? as nearly like tfcat of other children as can be had."
