Lauren and Sean Shillinger were in a state of shock and despair when their daughter, Brynleigh, was diagnosed with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) as an infant 12 years ago. The family has risen to the challenge. Along with seizures and other physical symptoms, Brynleigh struggles with TSC-Associated Neuropsychiatric Disorders (TAND). Still, Lauren and Sean are optimistic that advances in TSC research can improve Brynleigh’s life. They attribute that optimism to the TSC Alliance.

The Shillingers firmly believe that with more innovative research, earlier diagnosis and better treatments are closer than ever. Please don't wait.

💙 Volunteer Spotlight: Michael Wood 💙

Today we’re honored to spotlight Michael Wood from Region 12: Mid-Atlantic, a dedicated leader who brings both heart and professional expertise to the TSC community.

As a Community Support Lead, Michael has made an incredible impact by using his background as a therapist to support others in meaningful ways. Through his Caregiver Support Calls, he creates a safe and welcoming space for caregivers to connect, learn, and grow.

These open calls provide practical strategies and tools for caregiver wellbeing, while reminding families that they are not alone in this journey. And his support doesn’t stop there—keep an eye out for the next series of caregiver calls coming this summer! ☀️

Michael’s motivation comes from his own family’s experience:

💬 “When our son was diagnosed with TSC, we found it to be incredibly helpful to connect with and hear from others. I hope to offer this same support to others going through similar experiences.”

💬 “It is important to me to find a way to get involved and let families know that they are not alone in managing TSC.”

Michael, thank you for showing up with compassion, for sharing your expertise, and for creating spaces where caregivers feel supported, seen, and empowered. 💙

👏 Help us thank Michael by dropping a 💙 in the comments!

Managing Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) is an ongoing journey that often requires lifelong monitoring, evolving treatment plans, and coordination across multiple specialists and care providers.

Because TSC can affect multiple organ systems over time, patients and caregivers often coordinate care across many providers, support teams, and insurance requirements, making continuity of care essential.

Specialty pharmacies, like Total Care RX, can play an important role in ongoing care management by helping patients and providers navigate treatment changes, coordinate medication access, support adherence, monitor ongoing therapy needs, and help reduce interruptions in care throughout the treatment journey.

As individuals with TSC transition through childhood, adolescence, and adulthood, coordinated support can help patients and caregivers feel more connected, informed, and prepared for the next step in care.

To help healthcare teams better understand the challenges patients may face across the continuum of care, Total Care RX developed a practical resource focused on access, coordination, and supporting patients from diagnosis through ongoing treatment management.
