It was a sad day in the Carter household. Sam Carrier had been diagnosed with Tourettes at a young age and ever since he has been forced to live the hard life of a teenager while living with this terrible disease.
Carter has adapted a love of running. He says that loving is an escape from the nightmare he lives every day. Recently while going for one of his daily runs, he ran into a girl. The girl, who wanted to be anonymous, was intrigued by his unique personality and wanted to learn more.
Carter came to school the next day with hopes of running into this girl. She stayed clear of the path and has yet to introduce herself as a person and not just as 'the girl on the run.'
We will keep you updated on any news on this mystery girl and the struggles Sam faces living with Tourettes.
