Chats are open for any discussion topic within reason. Often discussed topics include ECD diagnosis issues, treatments, tests, knowledgeable doctors, symptoms, treatment side effects, and sometimes just friendly discussions about pleasant things happening in participants’ lives. Most who attend the sessions have found connections and continue to correspond outside of the chat sessions. The meetings also provide a support structure for those who are interested in learning as much as they can about ECD and providing mutual support to each other.
