description |
Cerebral Palsy is one type of disability. It normally falls under the category of
physical disability according to the Malaysian Department of Social Welfare’s
categorisation of disability. However, Cerebral Palsy is unique and complicated.
Person with Cerebral Palsy can experience multiple disabilities (MD category) if
he/she has other disabilities like deafness (DE category), blindness (BL category),
speech impairment (SD category), physical disability (PH category), learning
disability (LD category), and mental disability (ME category). Although Zaid’s
disability in his “OKU” card (disability card), is categorised under physical
disability, he has some problems in learning compared to other typical children of
the same age. His physical disability here is related to movement particularly due
to gross motor skills; as he has normal physical limbs, it is not physical disability
due non-existence or deficiency of any part of the body. However, due to his Spastic
Diplegic type of Cerebral Palsy he has problems in controlling movement of legs
that affects his legs’ structure particularly the legs’ palms and knees. All these
problems and some other issues have effects on his thinking about himself and his
existence. Therefore, it is important to take care of his spiritual aspect besides his
physical aspect and to make him understand about the worldview; reality of
existence, life, being, human being, God, spirit and spirituality, and life in the
hereafter. The author, Zaid’s mother attempts to share her experience in dealing
with spiritual care for a person with Cerebral Palsy. The study includes but is not
limited to understanding of the reality of Cerebral Palsy and its problems in general,
Zaid’s problems in particular, the importance of spiritual care for persons with
Cerebral Palsy, and application of spiritual care in the case of Zaid. The study will
not only describe the experience between the mother and the child, but also will
analyse several literatures on spiritual care, particularly for persons with disability,
incorporating Qurʾanic and Sunnah teachings. In a nutshell, this paper is perhaps
an eye-opener of practical application in understanding the significance of spiritual
care for persons with Cerebral Palsy |
