The idea of virtualataxia is to create networks so that no-one with Ataxia need be alone. Many people have access to the internet and can benefit from contact with other people with Ataxia. None of us are doctors (the only relevant qualifications we have, is that we are all living with/affected by Ataxia), so we cannot give any medical advice (any medical questions should be directed to AtaxiaUK), but instead concentrate on social support. We run twice weekly chat (Tuesday 7pm and Sunday at 4.30pm) sessions as well as an email mailing list.

Further details of both can be found at http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/virtualataxia/ but if you have any questions please do not hesitate to email us at tim@spiveyworld.netor alice@spiveyworld.net
