tourette's

Josh is a kid who lives in New York with Tourette's. He is in 11th grade and he has a radio diary that follows him throughout his day. He is very bitter, and I guess he has a better excuse to be in a bad mood then most people have. He can sort of control his outbursts, and he tries really hard to surpress his ticks during school. When he comes home he just flips out on his parents and likes to make prank phone calls and scream at people. Living with tourette's wouldbe very difficult, especially as a teenager in New York. In the radio diary Josh tries to figure to out if he'd be crazy without Tourette's.

Tourettes sounds horrible. I would hate to a have Tourettes. I couldn't imagine have uncontrolable outbrusts. That would stink. I mean I think some bad things sometimes but I don't say them. I would hate not to be able to control myself. I mean imagine your one life you have Tourette's, that would stink.
