Multiple disabilities
Multiple Disabilties refer toany combination of two or more types of disabilities. There are some conditions that consist of two types of disabilities sometimes, although medically, they are in fact individual conditions with varying syndromes. An example is cerebral palsy, which is a condition that affects control of movement but is occasionally accompanied by mental impairment. For convenience of the surfer, information on such conditions is listed in this category for the benefit of such users.
