Description / Comments
Early Stage Alzheimer's disease Educational Forum to be held on May 22 at Dell Jewish Community Center from 6:30 - 9:30 pm. RSVP to txprograms@txalz.org.

Receiving a diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is never easy. A wide array of questions and concerns come to mind as one prepares for a future with AD.

The Early Stage AD Educational Forum has been designed by the Alzheimer's Association to speak to these concerns through a panel discussion by credentialed, professional representatives.

Early stage refers to people, irrespective of age, who are diagnosed with AD or related disorders and are in the beginning stage of the disease.

Information topics covered include Diagnosis/Misdiagnosis, Coping strategies, Treatment and medication, Legal Issues, Stigma, Clinical Trials, and Long-term planning.

A total of 6 Early Stage Educational Forums will be held by the Alzheimer's Association-Capital of Texas Chapter from May-November 2008.
