No matter how well we plan, most of us have some loose ends to tie up Christmas Eve day, just before going to church or having the family gather at our home.

A recent Huffington Post article on what we’ve learned about Alzheimer’s disease during the last 30 years caught my eye because it’s easy to think there’s been no progress.

Now, Artists for Alzheimer’s (ARTZ) is spotlighting a new way that movies can be used to enhance the lives of people with Alzheimer’s disease. ARTZ is a nonprofit based in... Read moreChevron
