The Alzheimer's Association Caregiver Conference
The Alzheimer’s Association Mid-Missouri Chapter is proud to host Coach Frank Broyles, Alzheimer Champion and Caregiver, at the Alzheimer’s Association Caregiver Conference on April 21, 2010 in Columbia.
Coach Broyles, retired football coach and Athletic Director Emeritus for the University of Arkansas, said he met his biggest opponent when Alzheimer’s disease appeared in his life. His wife Barbara’s experience with Alzheimer’s disease touched him deeply, moving him to write an informational handbook called “Coach Broyles’ Playbook for Alzheimer’s Caregivers: A Practical Guide.”
An excerpt from the introduction:
“Our family came together and decided to focus on what we did have instead of what we didn’t. We chose to celebrate our “todays” and our memories, and to make each day the best, with no regrets. Like so many others, we experienced our share of heartbreaks. We also experienced happy times, and those we will remember forever.” Please join us.
