Getting relief from Turrets

[JHC]

Just saw a very moving doco on TV called “Iswear I can sing” it featured Ruth Ojadi who suffers from Turrets disease but when she sings she is normal, I think she has a very strong voice that is more than suited to Jazz,
just a short clip enjoy

Yes I have also heard that this works for some people who studder...can sing it but not speak it. Very interesting I think.

Amazing, it must be great for her to be able to sing without problems. I think singing does help stutterers too. I know of two people who stuttered when they spoke English, but when they spoke German they didn't. I wonder what the difference is between singing and speaking.

I don't know Marg perhaps a different set of connections in the old grey matter but it does seem to do wonders

Yes, it is amazing what can be done.
