As the TN facial tics are worsening, I let my friends know what was happening, and they have been great. We can be talking, and the pain hits, the face tics, I every once in a while will let out with a ouch, and they act like nothing is wrong, which is what I asked of them to start with. Now, if I am in real massive trouble, I know they will have my back. Thing is I am not feeling, like the odd ball out. My friends have been great about accepting I have TN, and this is what happens during the day, without passing judgments. I love my awesome friends!
What a lovely, positive post, saraiderin. I am glad your friends are so supportive.
