Today, I'd like to invite you to what promises to be a very informative session about the subject of Alzheimer's disease.

The Rutland County Caregiver Coalition and the World Neurology Foundation announce that Piero Antuonon, M.D., professor of neurology and pharmacology and director of the Dementia Research Center at the Medical College of Wisconsin, will present a talk and discussion about the latest research and information about Alzheimer's disease.

The event will take place from 9 to 11 a.m. Dec. 7 at the CVPS/Leahy Conference Center, Room A, at the Rutland Regional Medical Center. Anyone interested in the subject is welcome to attend and especially those who are caregivers for people with Alzheimer's disease. Dr. Antuonon will answer questions in an open forum, so you are encouraged to bring your concerns to the discussion.

Registration and free continental breakfast will take place from 9 to 9:30, followed by Dr. Antuonon's talk. Seating is limited so please R.S.V.P. today by calling Brenda Howe at 786-5990.

On another note today, just a reminder that you are cordially invited to attend the Council on Aging's annual meeting from 9:30 a.m. to noon Wednesday at The Maples Senior Living Community off Stratton Road. Featured is the popular speaker, Dr. Susan Wehry. Refreshments will be served.
