SANFORD — Mark Pechenik, Director of Community Outreach with the Maine Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association, returns to Goodall library at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 5 to present the program “Dementia Conversations.”
This program is for families and individuals coping with Alzheimer’s disease or the beginning stages of dementia.
This program provides tips for breaking the ice with family members to address some of the most common issues that are difficult to discuss: going to the doctor for a diagnosis or medical treatment, deciding when to stop driving, and making legal and financial plans for future care.

Comments are not available on this story. Read more about why we allow commenting on some stories and not on others.
We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
