Get Involved
As a first step towards acceptance of the changes in my husband [after his diagnosis] I made a phone call to the Alzheimer’s Society of Calgary to sign up for a course. After explaining my intent, and before anything else was said, the person on the other end of the phone asked, “How are you doing?” So unexpected, so sincere, so compassionate, so moving. We chatted for a long time.
The Alzheimer’s Society has been a great resource for our family on this journey through the disease with my Dad.
Walk or run for the cause
Come out on Sunday, October 7 for the 28th annual Investors Group Alzheimer Walk and Run.
