Does anyone know...?!
 

I have been digging today looking for info re Tourette Syndrome as it relates to children with Asperger's Syndrome.

If anyone has first hand knowledge or info they think would help me, please send it forth...I accept messages here, also by PM, email, telephone, IM or smoke signal...matters not.

Thank you...

Have you tried this website? http://www.samuelsworld.co.uk/article/samuels-story

My wife is involved with specials adults as a minstry, we have one with Asperger's and one with Tourette. Tourette seems to be the more difficult.

Barb, if I happen upon relevent info; I shall sent it by smoke signal, so be watchin' out yer window! Oh, and thanks for that option!

Thank you for this...I appreciate your help and concern.

Anything your wife can share would be most helpful...:)

Check to see if you have a parents helping parents group in your area:

Subby, I saw the smoke in the sky, and knowing my sweet momma wasn't cooking, I figured it was you (sorry folks, tis true...momma burns things. We always teased her when we were younger and said we knew what the Hebrews went through with the burnt sacrifices).

Anyway, I haven't opened your info yet, but do appreciate it.

Wow...y'all are great...thank you!!

I redid my list of links.....I don't think all of those I posted first were working ones. .....Check with your local health department and see if there is a parents helping parents group in your area.

I have only begun to scratch the surface in reading and printing, but again, thank you all SO much!!:hug3

You're welcome!

Hon, the smoke must have been tainted 'cause I couldn't open the link, but I thank you again for the effort.

The link(s) in your email??

Yes, Pocahantas...

You can't open ANY of them? Are you getting error messages?

Yes...just the first one would not open...error...the other two are fine.

Thank you...

Uhh... Barb... I sent six.

Oops...:heeheehee

I shall check again tomorrow...:IAM

My son has aspergers Syndrome. He hasn't been diagnosed with anything realting to Tourette's Syndrom. We go through the Autism Center at Children's Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. Marshall University in Huntington WV has one of the best autism facilities in the nation. I'm sorry I don't have website information on hand, but those two resources should provide you with a lot of information.

fyi and off topic,
We've been blessed that within the past few years we've prayed with three children with autistic challenges that got the Holy Ghost.

barb,

I hope you find some of these useful.

This is wonderful news...thank you..

you aren't...thank you...

A cousin on my mom's side has Tourette's. . .not sure if he has Asperger's or not. My mom would know more or at least be able to find out more info. I'll see if I can get ahold of my cousin Sandy and find out more.

Thanks for sharing this website. I am very interested in starting one of these programs. What does your wife do there? I sent them an email, hopefully they will send me some information I can use.

I didn't know that...thank you, girl...
