My friends at the Banner Alzheimer's Institute are hosting a 3 hour program for friends and family of loved ones with Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD, sometimes called Pick's disease) to help them better understand and cope with the symptoms, disease progression and the kind of care required. You'll hear from experts in the field of this dementia, get your questions answered and meet others who are in the same boat.
Remember, you may feel like you're an island unto yourself when dealing with this, but you are never alone. You just have to take that step, and this is a great first step.
Space is LIMITED, so register for this workshop STAT. Email Deidra Colvin at Deidra.Colvin@bannerhealth.com
