Community

Getting a whole community involved will hopefully help us get answers quicker.

There are so many of us and so many more just starting this journey. We need answers but what can we do when the answers don't come quick enough.... find a community and put the pieces together with everyone who is on and has been through this journey.

As a community let's put out good information and be as helpful as we can. I was given a lot of help from several communities but had to dig and find them. The goal here is to put all these awesome resources in one spot so that you can easily find what helps you the most.

Let's Put The Pieces Together

Can we put the pieces of our puzzle together to maximize the outcome for the future? Let's give it a try one story and one piece of advice at a time.

Living with MCAS

This is difficult! Let's find a friend, a tribe, a community, a place where people "get us". A place we know there will be someone to support and understand what's happening. This is hard - let's make it a tad easier.

This is an opportunity to help, hope you will join (of course only when you can).
