My name is Darlene Mayo. 
I am a physician who specializes in the treatment of essential tremor. I created this group to provide a forum for parents to have a community to discuss concerns and challenges with having a child with ET. This group is also linked to our FB page by the same name that provides resources to help you and your child.

I am working with a non-profit agency, the Diann Shaddox Foundation, to raise awareness about ET in the school systems. We are creating content to provide to school principals, teachers, nurses, and other employees to educate them regarding recognizing ET and ways they can help children with ET at their school be set up for success:

One of our missions is to reduce bullying by other children and other adults. Even today this is a pervasive problem in the schools. By raising awareness and educating about ET, we strive to help every child with ET to feel valued and supported in their school and in social settings.
We welcome your active participation in this group. Please share resources and content that you have found helpful. And use this as a forum to discuss issues you have faced.

Together we can provide a better world for our children.

​Help us with medical research and give now.
