When someone you love gets a diagnosis of any kind of dementia, you have a choice. What kind of journey do you want your loved one and yourself to take? This talk is about your experience of the disease and how to make that much better.
It will take place Thursday, March 21, from 5:30 to 7 p.m., one of several future events the Wake Forest Renaissance Centre is hosting to educate area residents about Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. Each event is designed to offer local families the opportunity to learn about dozens of dementia-related programs, services, products, and resources – all in one location.
Pat Snyder will present “Choose Your Attitude for the Dementia Journey.” She is the author of “Treasures of Darkness: Extending the Early Stage of Lewy Body Dementia, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Disease.”
The Renaissance Centre is presenting these sessions in collaboration with the Alzheimer’s Association Eastern NC Chapter and Wake Forest SING as part of our commitment towards being a dementia-friendly community.
A future evening caregiver workshop will be offered on “Identifying the Enemy” on May 23. These workshops are free, but pre-registration is required.
