Happy St. Patrick's Day! I wish each of you a happy and fun day
… make sure to wear green!
Our next meeting and support group is Thurs., March 19 at 10 am
in the Main Clubhouse Multipurpose Room. We always meet on the
third Thursday of each month.
Our guest speaker this month will
be Dale Bethel (pictured at left), an
experienced Elder Law Attorney. His
topic will be the importance of general
estate planning. It is important for all
of us to review, or create an estate plan,
but especially if there is a possibility
of a dementia diagnosis or incapacity
of any kind looming. Mr. Bethel will
also explain how the rules on Medi-
Cal have changed this year and how it
affects those who got on Medi-Cal when there was no asset test, and
now there is an asset test. A question and answer session will follow.
Don't forget to drop your loved one off in the Arts & Crafts
Room. Our entertainment in the Arts & Crafts Room this month
is Dave Obry who also entertained us last month. Dave has been
very generous with his time. In April, we are looking forward to
Lloyd Friedman who is a new entertainer to our group. Our group is
designed to entertain your loved one while you attend the meeting.
We play games, do exercises, and do whatever it takes to keep your
loved one happy for those two hours while you are at the meeting.
No one is forced to participate.
