Gripping story from start to finish--and all true! The story of one family's struggle with Tourette's Syndrome, this reads like a novel but is even more moving because the characters and struggles are real. Cory, who is afflicted with Tourette's, and his mother, father and sister, all deal with the syndrome in different and personal ways, each bringing strength and dignity to a difficult situation. The ending will leave you stunned with the capacity for resilience and change. A wonderful story!
