Review for Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of Illinois Inc, Elmhurst, IL, USA
This small nonprofit group has helped me to cope everyday with my illness for the past 25 years. When I had never heard of the disease they helped me understand what it was, what I needed to do to get better and how to deal with my illness in everyday life. They are always there for me when I need them either on the phone, with a support group meeting or spring and fall meeting programs on different aspects of this illness, question/answer sessions with neurologists, prescription guidance, diet and nutrition, exercise etc.
Review for Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of Illinois Inc, Elmhurst, IL, USA
The MG Foundation of Il has been a godsend for me. They have helped me so much in my recovery and dealing with this illness. The support groups are great. It is just not a gripe session about your illness but help f rom other people dealing with MG and how they cope and make life easier for them, programs and discussions. The organization has 2 annual meetings a year and they have wonderful speakers with great question and answer sessions. I have been with this organization for 22 years and I am constantly learning and meeting great people that inspire me. The Executive Director is willing to help you as much as she can on the phone and give you referrals. I would give this foundation a 5 star rating and encourage anyone who gets MG to become a member, go to support groups, annual meetings and help support financially the cure for MG.
