 TVAC's
Position
Regarding the Return
of Thalidomide
 Thalidomide
is a drug that was introduced on to the market on October 1, 1957 in West
Germany. Thalidomide soon became a drug prescribed to pregnant women to
combat symptoms associated with morning sickness. When taken during the
first trimester of pregnancy, Thalidomide prevented the proper growth
of the foetus resulting in horrific birth defects in thousands of children
around the world. These children were born in the late 1950's and early
1960's and became known as "Thalidomide babies". See What
Is Thalidomide for more information.
The Thalidomide Victims Association of Canada (TVAC) is an organization
representing approximately 125 Canadians born disabled as a consequence
of the drug Thalidomide. TVAC provides non-monetary programs and services,
education, and advocacy for its members. Members of the Association call
themselves "Thalidomiders".
The Promise:
"It is our job to ensure
that these [Thalidomide] victims are cared for in the best possible
manner, that their needs are met to the fullest extent we can devise
and to ensure, as much as possible, that a similar tragedy will never
occur again."
The Honourable J.W Montieth, Minister of Health and Welfare
January 29, 1963
The Thalidomide Victims Association of Canada is a non-profit
charitable organization which requires funds to support programs, services,
and annual meetings.
As is the case with all charities, operating expenses are high. With the
Thalidomide Victims Association of Canada, this is even more the case,
considering the high cost of disability, the finite size of the group,
and the broad mandate the Association has undertaken.
To further discuss how you as a concerned individual or Corporation can
assist Thalidomiders in our Mission, please call or write us for a personal
meeting or for more information.
