Dissabled Parrent Named Chris's Website

Welcome To The Cerebral Palsy Homepage

My name is Susie Rodde. I'm 54 years young and live with a hearing dog named Ivy. This page is about me and my story. At the bottom of the page you'll find links to several additional pages. Some are used as resources by those with CP or other disabilities, parents of children with CP, students, and professionals such as Doctors, therapists, and teachers. Others simply serve as a way to connect with one another. Isn't that what the internet and world wide web are all about?

Please take time to explore these other pages and the instructive and fun things they contain. Also, if you're so inclined, please sign my guestbook at the bottom of any of the pages and let me know what you think and how you feel. If you'd like a personal response to a particular question or problem I might be able to help you with, simply use one of the email links and I'll get back to you as soon as I can, depending on what kind of mood my computer happens to be in at the moment!

Something I am very proud of is winning the Sandra Jensen Award. The Award is given every year sponsored by People First of California and co sponsored and awarded by the president of Protection & Advocacy Inc., the president at that time was Nancy Lim-Yee. 

You can see me in the Cerebral Palsey video entitled Susie Rodde's Wheels Of Achievement produced by Digital 2000.

Jacqueline Manuel, a 65-year-old woman who had cerebral palsy and diabetes and was airlifted from a road outside New Orleans during the evacuation. Her family had spent the past five months frantically calling nursing homes around the country, fearing she had become a "Jane Doe" unable to communicate her identity.

Officials at the morgue told her family that Manuel was brought there from a northern Louisiana nursing home on Sept. 25. "I called almost every state in the United States, and to hear that she was right there all that time is unbelievable," said Dana Clark, Manuel's niece.

Victims of Hurricane Katrina are attempting to recover from the massive storm. American Red Cross volunteers have been deployed to the hardest hit areas of Katrina's destruction, supplying hundreds of thousands victims left homeless with critical necessities. By making a financial gift to support Hurricane Katrina Relief efforts, the Red Cross can provide shelter, food, counseling and other assistance to those affected by Hurricane Katrina.

'How ABs See Gimps' examines "four mechanisms of perception" which sometimes occur at first sight of a severely disabled person. Using short stories, the book explores tendencies of physically normal strangers to reject physically handicapped persons, or gimps as they often refer to each other. The book is designed to help parents and family members to understand the dynamics involved in relating to handicapped children and adults. The book is also intended to assist caring people and professionals-teachers, mental health experts, minister, physicians--to understand negative reactions to handicapped persons by the general public. The stories portray interactions between able-bodied (ABs) and physically disabled people (gimps) in various settings. The characters and situations are drawn from incidents occurring in relationships between the handicapped, the people they love, the people who love them, as well as the casual passerby.

The author, Ruth C. Webb, holds a Ph.D. in Guidance and Counseling
from the University of Illinois and lives in Grinnell, Iowa. She writes from her personal experience with Cerebral Palsy.
