Guest guest Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 call 1-800-fight ms and they will give you the phone # of the ms group for your state and they will help you on the phone. Every state has a MS group and then they will assist you. Hope this helps Margot.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 you're welcome...good luck finding a group to attend. I'm out in the middle of no where (literally). There are 3 others here in town that also have MS but only 1 really talks about having it at all (well 1 is in a wheel chair, and is pretty much inable to communicate; and the other gal really doesn't say she has any problems and says she doesn't have it any more). So...that is why I am a member of this group. I truely love reading the posts. I haven't posted much lately, just reading a little. The computer is my lifeline to MS education and communication, thank god for technology eh? Let us know how you come out with the phone call to your local MS chapter.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 Well that was a bust. The chapter is in Minneapolis. There is one in Souix Falls. 200 miles is a bit far to commute > You can go to www.nationalmssociety.org > there there is a link to find a local chapter in your area or a support group. > > > > From: " bean999_99 " <bean999_99@y...> > > Date: 2004/03/19 Fri AM 11:12:19 EST > > To: MSersLife > > Subject: How do I find an MS support group in my area? > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 Just because the chapter is in one city that doesn't mean they don't have a closer support group. MN has a program where people will come to your home. Click on Client Programs at either chapter to find different programs. good luck Shirley In MN go here to find a support group http://www.nationalmssociety.org/MNM/event/event_detail.asp?e=6577 In IA go to http://www.nationalmssociety.org/IAC/event/event_detail.asp?e=7495----- Original Message ----- To: <MSersLife >Sent: Friday, March 19, 2004 3:42 PMSubject: Re: How do I find an MS support group in my area?> Well that was a bust.

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 Very true, Nebraska has groups all over the state in various cities. You can even start one in your city!
