Bethesda,Md Support Group
The Bethesda, MD, Support Group meets the third Saturday of the month from 10:00AM to 12:00PM Eastern Time via Zoom.
For Information contact: Alan Sinclair, Bethesda Support Group Leader: 301-474-7745 or alsin6206@verizon.net
Both the Bethesda, MD, MG Support Group and our sister group, the Glen Burnie, MD, Support Group are meetings of persons with MG, MG caregivers, and any person who wants to know more about MG to discuss treatments, medications, how we’re coping with MG, etc., via ZOOM. Eventually the Bethesda Group hopes to be able to return to in-person meetings at Suburban Hospital in Bethesda as well as continuing ZOOM meetings. Our meetings on ZOOM and when in-person are very informal. I usually send the meeting ZOOM link information the weekend before the meeting. We try to carry a positive emphasis about our common disability. Anyone is welcome at both meetings.
