ThyCa Long Island, NY Support Group
Manhasset, NY
| Meets: |
ThyCa Long Island meets the second Sunday of each month, except May, from 1:00 to 3:00 PM Eastern Time.
Note: There will be no meeting on October 8. We'll be traveling to the ThyCa Conference. Join us in Denver! Meetings will resume in November.
ThyCa remains cautious due to the evolving COVID-19 (coronavirus) situation.
We do expect some support group meeting sites to begin opening for in-person
meetings. We realize not all locations will open for the foreseeable future.
As such, ThyCa will continue to hold virtual meetings. We encourage all
support group members to be careful and stay safe.
Please take care of yourself. We suggest that you
follow the precautions recommended by your local health agencies and the U.S.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Nothing discussed at a support group should be considered as a replacement for a doctor's care. We do not give medical advice. We do share support and our own experiences. We are each ultimately responsible for our own care.
