I knew there was something I liked about "The Alzheimers Foundation Of America!" I can't tell you how many people will be on this call, but it is FREE, and worth a try. I will not attend, I will leave the room for those of you that are 'in the trenches!"

I hope you may find it helpful, let me know how it goes.
