We believe that my nephew has tourettes. He's 15 and has never been tested and probably never will. His parents don't want him on medicine and don't want to believe there's anything WRONG. As long as they can "give" him vitamins (which they don't enforce) they think he will be fine. They've just recently figured it out as the tics have gotten worse. They've told him he has a med. condition and it will get worse. So, they're not trying to get him better. I feel bad for him. They've taken him out of school and plan on homeschooling this year, but it's alot left undone and unattended, and now I fear it's too late! I want to help b/c they will listen to me on occation. I want him to believe he is in control. Like with cancer. Sometimes when people find out they have it they go down hill, but if he believes there's something HE can control, I believe with encouragement that he can over come some of it. He says he can control it when he goes hunting and playing with his dogs. I want to encourage him as much as possible b/c he lacks that at home spiritually and emotionally. We've been praying for him and I was hoping that you might know where I could begin to help them while also praying. What vitamins are the best and should they consider allergy testing?
