Notes on April Meeting:
Approximately 25 members of the North Texas Tourette Syndrome
Support Group met at Arbor Hills Nature Preserve for our monthly meeting and ice
cream social. The kids played Croquet, Bocci, Frisbie, several ball tossing
games, took advantage of the great playground and took a long hike on the nature
trails. Meanwhile the parents sat under the shade of a tree and talked about
our kids, their meds, upcoming ARD's, school, etc.
And of course, we all ate ice cream sundae's topped with just about everything
you can imagine!
The weather was great, a little windy, BUT it wasn't hot so we're grateful for
that! Everyone seemed to have a great time!
AND LET'S NOT FORGET OUR JUNE MEETING - DR. ANTHONY RIELA OF TEXAS CHILD
NEUROLOGY WILL BE ON HAND TO TALK ABOUT TS, ITS CO-MORBIDS AND Q&A
SESSION. DON'T MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY!
