I feared this day would come
My sweet baby girl has been diagnosed with mild to moderate tourette's syndrome. With everything else she has to deal with now this. I'm broken

My heart hurts reading this. I know how heavy it feels when another diagnosis gets added to a list that already feels unfairly long. It’s okay to feel broken right now — that doesn’t mean you are.
Your daughter is still the same sweet, incredible girl she was before those words were spoken. Tourette’s doesn’t take away who she is or who she can become, and having a parent who loves her as fiercely as you do already puts her miles ahead.
I know you carry your own experiences with this, and that probably makes it hit even deeper. But it also means you understand her in a way very few people ever could. She’s lucky to have you in her corner, even on the days it feels like you’re barely holding yourself together.
You don’t have to carry this alone. I’m here — for the venting, the anger, the grief, or the quiet moments when it all feels too much. 💛
