Healing Hearts. Inspiring Hope.

Join others in our connective tissue condition communities to share concerns and discuss issues related to everyday life. You will feel supported, heard, and enjoy the time spent with others.

Have you lost a loved one to Marfan syndrome or a related condition? Grief is a long and difficult process. Everyone experiences grief differently, but talking with others who can relate to what you are going through can be very helpful. If you have lost a loved one to Marfan syndrome or a related disorder and would like to connect with others who know what you are going through, please sign up for this group.

Have you been diagnosed with Loeys-Dietz syndrome? This group is a space to talk and connect with people in the community and share what you’re going through with others who understand. The group meets on the second Thursday of every month from 7-8 pm ET.

Are you diagnosed with Marfan syndrome or a related condition? Are you 50 years old or older? Would you like to connect with others in your age group? If so, this group is for you.

Join us for the Kids Club, a virtual social group for children ages 9-12 with Marfan syndrome, VEDS, Loeys-Dietz syndrome, and related genetic aortic and vascular conditions to increase opportunities for social interaction and connection with others who have a similar diagnosis.

Are you are a parent or guardian of a child with Marfan syndrome, Loeys-Dietz syndrome or a related connective tissue condition? Is your child 18 years old and younger? If so, we invite you to join other parents to discuss the challenges of raising a child with one of these conditions.

This group is intended for community members living outside of the United States. It is conducted in English. The LDS International Connect meets on the 4th Monday of each month at 2 pm EST.
