does cerebral palsy, if mild, become nonexistent.. and will the nerves always be messed up?

Question:

Answers:
My daughter has mild CP. She is able to do most everything other kids do, but she falls down more and has some trouble with the left side. from what I understand (I worked for United Cerebral Palsy fro 8 years), the perosn cna gain skills through therapy and may appear symptomless due to therapy, but they will always have CP. The brain injury that causes it has no cure at this time. My daughter fatiques a little quicker when doing ordinary things like walking, because she has to work harder to do these things with good control. At this point she uses a stroller for long distances, no longer wears braces and is doing great!! (She's four)

usually cerebral palsy happens from an accident at birth,resulting in brain damage.Like the baby was deprived of oxygen most of the time, and the damage is irreversable,although alot of times patients can have therapy to improver their motor skills.
