Hi Support Group member,
Linda Bridges' boyfriend Peter -- I am sorry to have to relay this information, but Peter Driskell passed away last month. There will be a celebration of life Saturday March 29 at 11 am at Barrington Manor House, 2700 North Cotswold, Kingwood, TX 77339. Gate code 1988#. Attire is casual colorful. Please keep Linda and Peter's and Linda's families in your prayers. It has been a long journey.
Dinner Out -- Our support group's monthly Dinner Out will be Wednesday March 26, 6:00 pm, at Oriental Gardens, 1528 Kingwood Drive, Kingwood, TX 77339. This is for present and former caregivers, and for those with dementia as well (as long as they can enjoy the social time with you). It's not a support group but a time to socialize and get to know one another. I need to hear from you by Monday March 24 if you do plan to attend.
Kingwood Memory Cafe -- The Memory Cafe will meet again Tuesday April 1, 5:30-7:30 pm, as usual, at Christ the King Episcopal Church in Atascocita. This is for the entire family, not just the person with memory loss. It's for relatively early stage folks. It's all FREE -- dinner, Wheel of Fortune (wear your thinking caps!), prizes, jokes, music. If you are interested in joining the fun, either let me know or contact Donna Composto directly, donna.composto@momscareplan.com, and she will add you to her RSVP list.
Kingwood Caregiver Conference -- The planning committee held our first meeting last week. The date of the conference is set -- Saturday September 6, 8:30 am - 12:30 pm. I will keep you posted as our plans progress. If there is a particular topic you would like to have addressed, please let me know and I will pass it along. These caregiver conferences are really wonderful, with lots of helpful information and opportunities to meet experts in the caregiving field.
Private Caregivers -- I have updated my list of private caregivers. Thanks to Eileen Shellhouse and others who have given me names. Sometimes people ask me for this, and I don't personally recommend anyone, but I am happy to pass along others' information. The people on the list (click the link above) may or may not be available.
Have a good month! Hope to see you soon.
