TMA Flying Solo Affinity Group Meeting
Join TMA’s Flying Solo Affinity Group: Support for Those Living with Myositis Without a Live-In Care Partner
The TMA Flying Solo Affinity Group is a dedicated space for individuals diagnosed with myositis who do not have a live-in care partner. Whether you live alone, are married but your spouse is unable to provide care, or even find yourself as the caregiver for your spouse, this group is here to offer understanding and support.
Living with myositis can be particularly challenging without a live-in care partner, but Flying Solo offers a community where you can connect with others who truly understand your unique circumstances. Share experiences, find helpful resources, and gain insights on managing daily life with myositis while navigating the complexities of independence and self-care.
When?
First Wednesday of each month at:
8:00 PM ET | 7:00 PM CT | 6:00 PM MT | 5:00 PM PT
Join us for this monthly meeting to connect, find strength, and support each other in our myositis journeys. You are not alone – come share and learn with others who “fly solo” like you!
