Brain Damage
Brain damage, the root cause of cerebral palsy, can occur as a result of many things, including head trauma, infection (like meningitis), bleeding into the brain, lack of oxygen, failure of the brain to develop properly (developmental brain malformation), and neurological damage to a child's developing brain.
