Salinas Alzheimer's Caregiver Support Group To Be Held August 5
by Richard Kuehn on 08/02/15
The Alzheimer's Association is having a caregivers support group on August 5 from 12:30 to 2:00 p.m. at the First Baptist Church of Salinas at 1130 San Vicente Avenue. This is a great place to meet with others who are going through the same experience that you are and get information from a great non-profit group. The group meets monthly on the first Wednesday of the month. For more information, call 1-800-272-3900. Regular readers of my blog know that both my grandmother and my father had this terrible disease when they passed away, and I have been working diligently with the Monterey Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association to raise money to find a cure. In addition to being the largest private funder of Alzheimer's research in the United States, they have support groups and a 24-hour hotline (800-272-3900) where a dedicated staff can help you if you are struggling with caring for a loved one with the disease. Family inHome Caregiving will be attending the Monterey Memory Walk. We are currently the number one fundraising team.
