Blood tests this morning as the boys have been on Aripiprizole for a year now. Very brave, worst thing was they couldnt have anything to eat after their tea last night. They were starving !!!
Went to Thorpe Park for a couple of hours afterwards, turned out to be very warm and very noisy. Ben was quite ticcy whilst we were there and was unable to go on one or two of the big rides due to the noise and the waiting in the queue in the sun.  Made a decision to apply for a diability fast pass.  Why not? never applied before, felt uncomfortable about it because I dont really think of tourettes as a disability but it is disabling in many ways.  If Ben had a fast pass today he would have managed a couple of the rides he really wanted to go on without struggling with the tics.  People always seem to glare at the people using the exit passes and you can feel them asking why what is wrong with them?? Its only fair the boys get to enjoy days out as much as any other child would. Another letter to write then.
