We are forever telling Tabitha that she is our Sweetheart. She used to look at us and say "I love your brain". INTERESTING! (I wonder what she meant by that?) Tabitha is our now 16 year old daughter (January girl) who was born with Turners Syndrome and at 18 months old was diagnosed with Autism and developmentally delayed. She is fairly healthy. We have had more complications with the autism/developmentally delayed symptoms more than the Turner Syndrome. It takes alot of patience and really staying in tune with her to stay on top of her behaviors. We have had alot of learning about this over the years. We will continue to be ever learning and trying to be of service to others in years to come. We love her and would not change having her for the world. God has done alot of work in and through us since He gave her to us to raise for His glory and His honor. USA - National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, Division of Research Site.
This study aims to correlate the clinical features of Turner syndrome with the genes responsible for each feature. This study is designed so that girls and women (AGES 7 AND UP) with Turner syndrome may benefit through extensive investigation of potential medical issues. This study will include genetic counseling and provide participants the opportunity to discuss their diagnosis, medical and social issues with physicians and nurses who are involved in the study. In addition, individuals' test results will be provided in printed form for participants and their physicians. This study aims to improve the preventative and therapeutic medical care for girls and women with Turner syndrome. USA - Turner Syndrome Society USA
The Turner Syndrome Society (TSS) of the U. S. was founded in 1987 by a group of dedicated individuals with experiences and information to share about the condition, first documented in 1938 by Dr. Henry Turner, a pioneer endocrinologist working in Oklahoma City, OK. The group had been inspired by a national conference sponsored by the Canadian TS Society, which itself had been organized six years earlier. From its beginning, and with an uncompromising effort, the Society determined to encourage medical research, the dissemination of state-of-the-art TS information, and social support services to individuals, families, physicians and the general public.
