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

**********************************************
·         Here’s the information from Narcolepsy Network
Join our virtual support group!

Thursday, March 26

We will be using the video conferencing site, Zoom. If you intend to join us, please sign up for a free Zoom account here.

Since we obviously missed getting this information out until AFTER the event had occurred, here is the website for the 
Narcolepsy Network
There are many tabs for a variety of information. 
I believe I saw one for "Online Support"
Check it out
