Get Together Support Group

Post by Chris61 » Wed Jan 14, 2009 6:47 pm

Is there anyone in the New Haven, Ct (Yale) area that would like to meet up and talk about CPAP and other issues that they might be havings. Sounds like groups do not get together that have posted on other sites. We could meet like just about any place.

E-mail me at vcw61@excite.com

Not sure what other sites you are referring to?

I am not opposed to meeting with another group but wonder if you knew about this one?
Let me know.

What I was talking about was a lot of people talk about groups getting together and then there is nothing for people to go to. So what I was thinking that we set up our own support group and we just meet up for lunch, dinner or something like that and talk about are issues etc.

Sound like a great idea. You might also want to consider starting a NEW chapter of A.W.A.K.E. , http://www.sleepapnea.org/awake/guidelines.html

Good luck,

I have a vision that we will figure out an easy way to ensure that children develop wide, deep, healthy and attractive jaws and then obstructive sleep apnea becomes an obscure bit of history.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ycw4uaX ... re=related

Sounds like you & me Chris. Why don't you go to the Griffin Support Group and we'll take it from there?

Haven't heard from Chris but I am getting the impression that he is NOT interested.
