I just wanted to let you know that although I live in a smallish city, the main television network here has recently started running advertisements about TS.

The ads explain to the general public what Tourette Syndrome is, what tics are and how they manifest themselves. How great is that?

I'd never seen an advertisement about TS on our televisions before, and this one has given me the oportunity to discuss the condition with my DH. I've now given him some basic education about it, and if every family were to do the same thing, just imagine how many more members of the public would be educated about TS.

I noticed a few days ago that they're now doing the same thing with multiple sclerosis.
