information on support groups

Question:

Edna, there’s also a small Tourette Syndrome Clinic at Stellenbosch University in Tygerberg run by Dr Sue Hawkridge.  She’s a collaborator with me in our international TS database called "CATS."  She might know of something.   Roger D.

Edna, from your e-mail address, you must be in South Africa … right? Here is the info I have (from Tourette Syndrome: the facts): Southern Africa Tourette Syndrome Institute SATSI Johan van de Westhuizen, President 228 Oak Avenue Ferndale, 2194 South Africa 27-11-886-6353 Izelda Pelser Neurogenetic Clinic Institute for Pathology Building P.O. Box 2034 Pretoria 0001, South Africa 27-12-324-5060 George S. Gericke, MBChB, MMed. Prof. and Head, Dept. of Human Genetics and Developmental Biology University of Pretoria P.O.

You could also e-mail or phone the US TSA and ask them if they have info: (718) 224-2999 toure…@ix.netcom.com Here’s their international contact list from their website (and they have the same information that I just typed up … <smacking myself on the head> ) http://tsa.mgh.harvard.edu/whoandwhat/international.html#southafrica BB2
