On my way to meet Laura and Hannah this evening I was stopped in the street by a man who asked me if I had Tourettes. When I said yes he said, “In that case I’ve got the cure.” He then offered to sell me some Cannabis, which I politely declined. When I told Laura this she laughed and said, “That’s quite entrepreneurial.”

Some people with Tourettes have reported that weed has helped reduce their tics, like Louis Centanni for example. Some states in America have been considering whether to add Tourettes to the list of conditions that can be treated with medical marijuana, although in Colorado the Board of Health recently rejected the idea.
