Help find a cure for Tourette Syndrome Posted on Wed, November 25th, 2009 Written by: , email: editor@syracuseparent.net
My daughter, Emily, was diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome (TS) this past year. As most of you know, TS is a neurological disorder that causes both motor and vocal tics of varying severity. It is also commonly associated with OCD, anxiety and ADHD. What many people don’t realize is that Tourettes can be a debilitating illness for many. There is no cure for Tourettes! Our family and friends are running in the Disney Half Marathon in January with Team TSA. Our goal is to help raise awareness and funds for Tourette Syndrome. TSA’s mission is to identify the cause of, find the cure for and control the effects of Tourette Syndrome. They offer resources and referrals to help people and their families cope with the problems that occur with TS. They also raise public awareness and counter media stereotypes about TS. Please help us reach our goal of raising $10,000 for TSA. You can make a safe online donation to our cause by visiting our team website at active.com/donate/wdw10/EmilysHomeTeam. TSA is a registered non-profit organization and donations are tax deductible. If you prefer you can mail in donations to: Dr. Monica Jones Syracuse Pediatrics 3175 East Genesee Street, Suite 2 Syracuse, NY 13224. Thanks you for helping Emily and the TSA!
