![]() | Amanda G @LAlupusLady RT @patientchat: T1: What makes community meaningful? #patientchat https://t.co/dgMRMqioaz |
![]() | R.M.C. Inc @RMCAwareness T1: Understanding the diagnosis (there’s no “one size fits all” for everyone’s diagnosis) and connecting with others who have the same diagnosis. #patientchat |
![]() | Patient Empowerment Network @power4patients T1: Shared experiences, trust, and I think, most importantly, a sense of connection #patientchat |
![]() | R.M.C. Inc @RMCAwareness T1: Respecting patients' privacy. Don’t try to pressure them to do anything they are not comfortable with and continue to share trusted resources with each other. #patientchat |
![]() | Amanda G @LAlupusLady T1 An engaged (online) community is created when people care and support one another. Meaningful communication happens one post at a time. Meaningful community does not fear the “deep.” #patientchat https://t.co/nZxddj7Rc0 |

![]() | Alan Brewington @abrewi3010 A1 community is meaningful if it’s prevents a patient from feeling alone. No one should ever feel alone #patientchat |
![]() | Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh Relevant information & support. Working together to create change. Shared experiences - ups, downs, heartaches, & celebrations. Always feeling a part of something rather than feeling alone in the struggle. #PatientChat |
![]() | Amanda G @LAlupusLady This. #patientchat |
![]() | Liz Kennerley #LongCOVID #RareDisease @LifeAccrdingLiz Firstly, is it possible to extend the chat by 15 mins? It's hard to keep up with topics and re-tweets with just 60 minutes. People might be more engaged, too #PatientChat |
![]() | R.M.C. Inc @RMCAwareness T1: My brother was diagnosed w/ terminal kidney cancer & told nothing could be done. He got a 2nd opinion from a Dr. specializing in his cancer. 9 yrs later he is living AND cancer free! Lack of knowledge from his diagnosing Dr. made me start https://t.co/hu1RrC9bIp #patientchat |

![]() | Marni Cartelli @Purrfectly_Rare A1. #patientchat I think this answer will vary based on the person doing the answering Meaning is derived wholely & differently by individuals. 2 people put in the exact same circumstances may come away w very different experiences bc they attained dif. meanings from them. |
![]() | Adam Johnson - DadVocate @RareDiseaseDad @patientchat T1: #PatientChat I love how the great @TedLasso speaks to his team after a devastating soccer match loss. Obviously it's different than what we deal with as patients, but I think it’s analogous & applicable to many different communities. Here is what he says (alt text included): https://t.co/mFLngWRnZP |
![]() | R.M.C. Inc @RMCAwareness T2: Social media platforms. I would definitely suggest social media. FB: RMC Support IG: & Twitter: RMCAwareness https://t.co/hu1RrC9bIp #patientchat |
![]() | Alan Brewington @abrewi3010 A2 the biggest resource is fellow patients. Especially if the are vocal or active social media users. The sharing of stories is the purest form of advacacy and community #patientchat |
![]() | Patient Chat @patientchat @stephp66 @LifeAccrdingLiz @RareDiseaseDad Hi Stephanie! Happy to have you here with us today #patientchat |
![]() | Patient Empowerment Network @power4patients T2: Some suggestions: Use hashtags, advocacy organizations, social media, research support groups, and patient groups ([REDACTED USER], @teaminspire, @CancerSupportHQ, and many many more) #patientchat |

![]() | Marni Cartelli @Purrfectly_Rare A2. #patientchat I use social media a lot, mostly Twitter & Instagram But I also go to events (when possible) on topics that interest me & meet people that way |
![]() | Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh My community is the online world of Facebook, Twitter, & the like. Couldn't find exactly what I was looking for, so, together, we built it. Disease-related nonprofits like @IFFGD & @gimotility have been quite helpful. #PatientChat |
![]() | Liz Kennerley #LongCOVID #RareDisease @LifeAccrdingLiz A1: Friendships beyond a #diagnosis. An identity, having a #chronicillness vs. letting it control you. #PatientExperience medical advice. Like which CoQ10 supplement, my #POTS diagnosis. peer support, etc. #PatientChat |

![]() | Adam Johnson - DadVocate @RareDiseaseDad @patientchat T2: Social media. I avoided it for 35 years, but after my #RareDisease & the diagnostic odyssey, I jumped in. This was during the pandemic, so it was kind of my only avenue. And the ol’ Google Machine helped me find a disease specific group. Thankful for technology! #PatientChat |

![]() | Alan Brewington @abrewi3010 A3 a community should be liked a warm blanket, a great way to escape being chronic and just be you. Even the most active or engaged leaders need an escape so they can avoid the beast for a minute or 2. #patientchat |
![]() | Adam Johnson - DadVocate @RareDiseaseDad @Purrfectly_Rare I can't wait to be able to get to in person events! I came into the #RareDisease space after the pandemic began, so I still feel a disconnect in some ways. Also, I'm a people person, & while I'm thankful for technology, there's no substitute for in person. #PatientChat |
![]() | Amanda G @LAlupusLady T3 The @healthevoices community of friends and patient leaders has helped me understand how to be a better advocate and caretaker. Stories lead to compassion and awareness. #patientchat |

![]() | Adam Johnson - DadVocate @RareDiseaseDad @patientchat T3: My mental health has been the biggest benefactor. This aspect is incredibly important for everyone, including those in the #RareDisease, #ChronicIllness, or #Undiagnosed communities. We aren't alone, we can connect w/others who can relate, support & be supported. #PatientChat |

![]() | Alan Brewington @abrewi3010 A4 as a #chronicpain patients the stigma of being an #opiate user is always present. Stigma is a constant battle that we all hope is minimized some day. #patientchat |
![]() | Carly Flumer (she/her) @carlyflumer T4: Simply an understanding of what the disease is if they’ve even heard about the disease in the first place. #patientchat |
![]() | Liz Kennerley #LongCOVID #RareDisease @LifeAccrdingLiz A3: Peer support as nobody understands the nuances of mitochondrial #disease better than those. Who. Have. It! I've asked, "How many people have..." "What works best for {symptom]", etc... #PatientChat #Community #RareDiseaseTruth |
![]() | Adam Johnson - DadVocate @RareDiseaseDad @patientchat T4: This could be a #PatientChat topic all on it's own! There are many prominent challenges. Here are a few: accessibility, diagnosis, being heard (by doctors, legislators, friends, family), insurance coverage, co-pays, pre-auth, resources (condition & support/community related). |
![]() | Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh So many! Some search years 4 a proper diagnosis. Encounter docs who aren't familiar w/the condition & don't understand the challenges associated. Specialists few & far between. Few treatments - none wholly safe, effective, & reliable. No cure. Isolation & loneliness. #PatientChat |
![]() | R.M.C. Inc @RMCAwareness T4: Tissue donation drives cancer research https://t.co/bNm00FmPQ3 (@pattern_org) and our RMC patient registry(https://t.co/zbUwoSF1n6) Can serve as ways to overcome various challenges in the RMC community. #patientchat |

![]() | Adam Johnson - DadVocate @RareDiseaseDad @melissarvh Yes! Advocating together and mental health are so important, and much better (at least for me) when approached with community. #PatientChat |
![]() | Amanda G @LAlupusLady A4 Sometimes living with chronic health conditions limits a person’s ability to be consistent in online communication and engagement. #PatientChat reality. |
![]() | Adam Johnson - DadVocate @RareDiseaseDad @carlyflumer Well said (as usual), Carly! #PatientChat |
![]() | Alan Brewington @abrewi3010 A3 a community should be a place to learn & gain energy from. However that means it needs people to give knowledge & energy from. A community is a dynamic organism #patientchat |
![]() | Patient Chat @patientchat T5: How can we help amplify the voices of vulnerable patients in our community? #patientchat https://t.co/dGMp484XVf |
![]() | Adam Johnson - DadVocate @RareDiseaseDad @LAlupusLady Excellent point, Amanda. Thank you for bringing this up! #PatientChat |
![]() | R.M.C. Inc @RMCAwareness T5: We must raise awareness within the medical community and among the advocate community. I am proud to share our Invisible No More Campaign which is raising awareness about RMC for various communities. https://t.co/lq4FTRrmN9 #patientchat |

![]() | Alan Brewington @abrewi3010 A4 stereotypes about mental health and gender roles are challenges. For example as a chronic male am I allowed to shed tears bc of my #chronicpain. Or should I be a tough guy. #patientchat |
![]() | Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh They want to be taken seriously by friends, family, medical professionals, researchers, & legislators/ policymakers. They feel guilty & inadequate & are often afraid to speak up & advocate for themselves out of fear they won't be believed. #PatientChat |
![]() | Adam Johnson - DadVocate @RareDiseaseDad @patientchat T5: We need to continue to rally around each other. It's powerful to see communities like this #PatientChat recognize the challenges & speak up together. We need systemic change in many instances so we don’t have these continual individual challenges that are addressed in silos. |

![]() | Alan Brewington @abrewi3010 A5 all patients are vulnerable by definition, we need to accept this first. Next ask how might we promote/signal boast each other. Also realize I can help a #narcolepsy patient even though I’m a #chronicpain patient #patientchat |
![]() | Adam Johnson - DadVocate @RareDiseaseDad @patientchat T5 (cont): Those individual challenges are also not really individual. They impact many, yet are handled (out of necessity) individually. To be clear, I'm glad we can rally with/for each other. It would just be nice to have the right thing be done right now, for all. #PatientChat |

We know we're alone, & we're not alone in that. We hear each other. It doesn't fix anything, but somehow it makes it different." #PatientChat |
