    Welcome to the forum, this is a great online support group. Have you called your local Alzheimer's Association chapter and your local Council on Aging? They will know the groups in your area. Sometimes memory care facilities also run support groups, so you could also inquire there. I have participated in a couple of groups in my area but find more information and help here.
