Looking for a regular online support meeting to attend

Options

Hi, I am the life partner of someone with between mild to moderate dementia. He and I would like to attend something together so we can hear together what is ahead and what works to help with different aspects of the disease and its progression. Any links appreciated. Thank you

    This is something I'd definitely be interested in! Perhaps like a 1 to 2 hr. Zoom or Teams call

    lisaalex2 i am part of 2 alz zoom groups that i found through the alzheimer asso. 12 to15 in one and 8 0r so in another. i also go to a local alz group once a month. its really great to talk to people who have the same situation but may be in different progression . everyone gets it!!. there are certainly enough people with alz who need contact. you just halve to pull us out from under the fear rock……….
