Dr. Dan interviews author and journalist Michele Turk about her memoir What Makes Him Tic? A Memoir Of Parenting A Child With Tourette. When Michele Turk’s 11-year-old son, Michael, was diagnosed with Tourette syndrome, she made it her mission to show him – and others – that he was so much more than the boy with tics who shouted obscenities hundreds of times a day. On today’s first-ever episode about Tourette Syndrome, Dr. Dan and Michele’s honest and poignant conversation will uplift, educate, and inspire special needs parents everywhere. This interview coincides with the Tourette Association of America’s Tourette Syndrome Awareness Month (May 15 - June 15) and TAA’s national TIC-CON24 conference where Michele and her son Michael are speakers. A journalist for three decades, covering parenting, health, and education, Michele Turk’s articles have appeared in BusinessWeek, Parents, Parenting, Elle, USA Weekend, The Washington Post, and Brain, Child.
