  • I Can’t Wait to See You for Our Next Social! Anyone From Europe?

    Posted by price-wooldridge on October 28, 2021 at 12:04 pm

    It’s almost November and time for our next LEMS forum social. Our last one was a big success. We had 9 people at the Zoom conference from 8 states. What I’d like to see now is someone from a foreign country joining us. Just last week I was at a Zoom conference and met a fellow patient with sickle cell disease. She was from London! It’s fun to meet people from other countries.

    Our next Zoom meet-up is Tuesday, November 9th, at 4 PM EST. Checking my world clock, this would be 10 PM in London. That seems doable, right?

    Regardless of where you are though, please join me and co-moderator, Ashley, for the November meet-up.

    Hello Price and fellow LEMSies,

    I would like to join you for the next Zoom conference on November 9th.

    My name is Sandra Günther, I am 54, Dutch, but living in Switzerland for over 30 years. I was diagnosed with LEMS in October 2018, I’m using Firdapse since December 2018 and having IVIG since May 2019.

    I have never met another LEMS patient, so I am really looking forward to meeting you all!

    Could you please just inform me what I have to do to join the meeting?

    We will change to winter time this weekend. You’re changing on November 7th, right? So the time difference will be 6 hours?

    Best regards from Switzerland

    Sandra Günther

      @sandra Hi Sandra! We would love to have you join us November 9, and 4 PM Eastern Standard Time in the US. You are correct, we will go off Daylight Savings Time two days prior on November 7th. We are 6 hours different from Europe (at least London I know. I’ve been hoping we could pull someone in from over there, so I hope you can join us. And I’m especially excited, since you’ve not met another LEMS patient! All of us there will either have LEMS or be a caregiver. Both me and my co-moderator @ashleygregory757 have LEMS.
      These are Zoom meetings, so ensure that you can do those technically with your computer, tablet, or phone. The day of, a topic will be posted with the link to join the meeting. Just log in a bit early and we look forward to meeting you.

    I would also like to join you on the zoom meeting. I am from Ireland and was diagnosed with LEMS in 2018. I know nobody with LEMS in Ireland so it would be great to catch up.
