Day 6 on meds - Monday

Today was an insane day at work so I was only with Linc in the morning and then the evening. He spent the day with his sister and dad and they both commented that his physical tics were down but that there were still bursts of cursing. His sister said they seemed better but she also admitted she is a bit used to them and doesn't think much about it anymore.

Come evening it was a different story. He broke down. Bawling, worried, anxious and inconsolable. School was starting in the morning and he was so upset about it. He was nervous in general about starting 3rd grade and getting back into a routine and the tics. I was worried about him when we went to bed but knew he had to find a way to power through and embrace everything.

We got a book called "Taking Tourettes to School" and put it in his backpack. I told him I would tell the teacher about it so she could read it to the class if she wanted and he liked that idea. Now we just have to see how tomorrow will turn out.
