Default Anyone Else?

Hi, my 13 y/o son was diagnosed with Tourette's and OCD when he was 7 y/o. Two years ago he was diagnosed with Chiari 1 malformation; asymptomatic for now. Last year he was diagnosed with Bipolar after being hospitalized for a pychotic episode. And last week he was tested for ADD and scored mild to moderate. He is well medicated (Lithium, Abilify, Orap, Seroquell, Cogentin and now Adderall) and is blessed with a wonderful psychiatrist, pschologist, nuerologist, and therapist. He has so many illnesses and it just breaks my heart. He is a wonderful child, smart, funny and kind. I have done everything in my power to make his life easier but he still struggles daily. I know most children with one mental illness usually have another, but so many for one child just seems so unfair. I guess sometimes I feel alone and would love to have other parents to correspond with that are dealing with the same things I am. Anyone else?
