“Ask Us Anything!” with Dr. Mignot, Julie Flygare and Watson

By julie | August 23, 2018 |

Friends!

I’m super excited to share that on Tuesday, Sept. 4, at 7 p.m. ET, Project Sleep will host a very special “Ask Us Anything” Facebook Live event, featuring myself along with Emmanuel Mignot, M.D. Ph.D., Director of the Stanford Center for Sleep Sciences and Medicine, and Watson, a chihuahua with narcolepsy.

We will answer as many of your questions as we can in the hour and Dr. Mignot is excited to share new narcolepsy updates! I’m thrilled that this will kick off Project Sleep’s new Facebook Live monthly series, covering a wide variety of topics to be announced each month.

Have you met a dog with narcolepsy?

I’ve NEVER met a dog with narcolepsy before, so meeting Watson “live” on our broadcast will be super cool – and hopefully not too “catapletic” for me! For some reason, I envision feeling that “ironic connection” feeling if I were to see any signs of our same muscle weakness in the dog. 😉

Send us your questions

Submit your questions using this link by Sept. 1, at midnight, and we will answer as many as possible live!

Although we cannot answer personal health questions via a FB Live broadcast (and must advise folks to reach out their medical professionals about personal health questions), there is SO much we’d love to discuss on this FB live!

Ask Dr. Mignot and myself about narcolepsy research, awareness, advocacy, social support, OR our personal journeys to where we are today! Ask Watson and I about our favorite nap spots or trickiest cataplexy triggers. Dr. Mignot will help translate for Watson!
