Tic & Twitch: A Story About Tourette Syndrome

Tommy was diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome at the age of 13. Rather than hating and resenting his reality, Tommy was able to accept Tourette’s as something more that contributed to his uniqueness in the world. Even so, growing up with Tourette’s is challenging. Tic and Twitch is a story about those challenges and about the beautiful things in life that make those challenges tolerable. These beautiful things to hold dear are family, friendship, kindness, love, acceptance, and learning to embrace what makes you the special person you are.
