It's Been Quiet

One thing that I've read over and over again is that tics wax and wane and change often.  This seems to be the case with Gerry these days.  His tics have been few and far between, mostly unrecognizable, for the last few weeks now.  The only noticeable tic he has is his whistling tic.  No crazy animal noises, no screams, no neck jerking or facial twitches.

It's been..."normal".  Quiet.

Since his diagnosis, his tics had been on an upswing, with seemingly at least one new tic every day.  I'd gotten so used to the strange twitching and constant noises that it seemed weird (and very noticeable) to me once his quieted down.

I'm not sure how long this will last, or if he'll bust out with a new, crazier tic one of these days.  As with all things TS, we're just along for the ride at this point.  :-)
