Open Mic On Alzheimer's Speaks Radio - Celebrating The Holiday Season.  Let your voice be heard.

Before another holiday season slips by us, we would love to hear from you.  What are your struggling with during this time of year?  What are you grateful for?  Are you holding to your normal family traditions or have you made some adjustments? 

We all know the holidays can be a beautiful and stressful time of the year.  For some, it's down right depressing.  Here on Alzheimer's Speaks Radio we believe it's ok to feel a variety of emotions and we want to be a safe place for people to share  and support one another.

Call in at (714) 364-4757 or use the chat box to talk with us.  Together, we can make a difference to improve our dementia care culture.

Looking for a great gift for someone with dementia?  Check out Alzheimer's Music Connect for a variety of gifts.  It's never too late to bring comfort to someone with dementia.
