Relationships are so very crucial … and the peer relationships developed and sustained within our groups are crucial to acceptance of symptom progression and development of strategies to best deal with symptom progression.

In my blog I now provide a calendar of known Zoom opportunities for those with dementia.
Most of these Zoom gatherings are for members only, with a few exceptions.
Recently remembered that both AFTD and LBDA have Zoom gatherings, so now adding those on the calendar.

TUESDAYS: If you have a firm diagnosis of Fronto-Temporal Degeneration and would like to join the FTD Patient Support group, please contact sherylwhitman.FTD@gmail.com.
The group also has a video Zoom meeting every Tuesday; 10am Pacific time, 11am Mountain time, 12 noon Central, and 1pm Eastern time.  Members-only.

WEDNESDAYS: LBD Living with Lewy is also members-only:
Membership is limited to those diagnosed with Lewy body dementia.
These video Zoom gatherings are part of the “Living with Lewy” FaceBook support group, so you must be on FaceBook and a member of that specific FaceBook group. Members-only.
