This September 23-24, I will travel to Italy to speak at a very special 20th anniversary party of A.I.N. (Associazione Italiana Narcolettici e Ipersonni) in Bologna. Other featured speakers will include Dr. Emmanuel Mignot from Stanford (USA) and Prof. Jean-Charles Schwartz from Paris (France).

While there will be live translation, I’m hoping to brush up on my Italian a bit so I can at least read a passage of my narcolepsy memoir in Italian.

I’m so grateful to A.I.N. for this amazing honor. I can’t wait to meet my Italian friends with narcolepsy and hypersomnia soon!
