Health
News with Monica Robbins
Cleveland television station WKYC-TV
recently aired a story about one of Dr. Lazarus' patients,
a boy with Tourette Syndrome who had been asked to leave
school for a week because his cough tic was so disruptive
to the class. As Monica Robins, the health news anchor, reports,
the child was able to control the cough tic after meeting
two or three times with Dr. Lazarus. Now, five years later,
he is still doing well. When a tic occurs, he is able to
control it using the techniques that he learned from Dr.
Lazarus.
