On-Line Support Options

Since we are not allowed to meet in person, here are some Options to Help You Maintain Support During our National Health Emergency

We are passing along this information so that you know there is support out there for those who are willing to participate in an on line support group.

When this National Health Emergency ends, the

Midwest Narcolepsy Support Group

will resume our regular "Face to Face" meetings.

Hang in there

BE SAFE

BE WELL

LOOK OUT FOR OTHERS WHO MIGHT NEED HELP

There will also be a call-in number, if you choose not to join via video.
