Hate that feeling.<BR/><BR/>My boy child has mild Tourette's, co-morbid with the AS stuff. His tics get a LOT worse when he's stressed out, but if he's not, they are barely noticeable. My absolute favorite book about Tourette's is actually a work of fiction: <I>Motherless Brooklyn</I> by Jonathan Lethem. In fact, that is pretty much my all-time favorite book ever, period.Badgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08612452005428621885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27595048.post-10875040435941438102007-06-18T00:10:00.000-07:002007-06-18T00:10:00.000-07:001) Wow.

Well, I'm glad that you have a diagnoses, at least there is something to work forward from.<BR/><BR/>2) Your tomatos totally rock, I remember you gave me some once and they was TASTY.<BR/><BR/>3) I'm a vitamin whore too, and am convinced all these "slimming" things (sometimes, unfortunately also spelled 'sliming") I am taking after every meal WILL WORK dammit. <BR/><BR/>4) No. Bows. On. Dogs! This is why cat people are cat people and dog people are dog people! It's obvious i have to get home and get you straightened out! At the verry least, use red or black, fa Chrissakes!
