How should we deal with cerebral palsy in children?

Patient's question:

The baby in my colleague's family is eight and a half months old. They can hold their head up, but they always prefer to look down or lie on an adult's shoulder. They still can't sit still and sway from side to side. They have just started to learn to roll over and like to kick their legs when lying down. Usually, they don't react when called. They went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said it was cerebral palsy.
