What is CMTC?
Cato was the first to make a scientific description of CMTC. One of her ideals was to provide help to children and all her scientific work was thus aimed at application in practice. As far as we know, she had no formal medical qualification although she probably had studied at the University of Amsterdam.
She was unmarried and lived with her parents on the Sumatralaan in Hilversum and her children's clinic was located at Ministerspark. Her mother died in 1930, Cato having taken care of her with much love and devotion.
Cato was, most likely, born in 1893 and died in January 1937.
She played the violin and was the only family member at the time that owned a motor car.
From the information we have received, she appears to have been highly dedicated to her work, very modest and not at all publicity seeking.

Her mother was Kaatje Kievit, a farmers daughter from a family of settlers on the island of Texel, Eierland Polder.
Her father was Arnold van Lohuizen, who met his wife through his work as a civil servant, Receiver of Registration and Domains, at Den Burg. Over the course of his career, the family lived at Middelburg, Culemborg, Apeldoorn, Zwolle and finally Amsterdam.
Her father was the youngest of many brothers and two sisters and fell out of favour with his brothers when he became a civil servant. There were no medical doctors in the family.

Cato's grandfather was a dominant personality who purchased a water-mill at Vaassen on The Veluwe in the 19th century and so became a paper manufacturer and the founder of a metalworking factory, later a producer of silver foil and decades later taken over by the former Hoogovens
foundry, Velsen. The original name of the business was De Industrie v.h. van Lohuizen en Co.A large number of his diaries have been kept and he also liked to write. At a later age he was a landscape painter. His names was Teunis van Lohuizen, 30th June 1820 - 21st December 1903. Many photos of him and his wife, 15th November 1819 - 1st May 1896, have been kept, just as have many of the family in which Cato grew up.
Cato's brother, our father, was one of the early pioneers in the area of town planning, related to the later field of urban planning. In 1990 "The Life Work of Th. K. van Lohuizen 1890- 1956" by Arnold van der Valk." appeared, written about him posthumously. His oration for what is now the Technical University Delft is still cited today: "The Unitary Nature of Town Planning" (Delft University Press).
