Join CountryHouse memory care in Folsom and Granite Bay on November 12, 2024, for “Holding on and Letting Go: How Grief and Memories Intertwine” featuring presenter Dr. Linda Gillman.

Grief is the natural reaction to loss. We often think of grief as the reaction that follows a death, but in reality, it is the response to ANY loss. Those who love someone with dementia may be grieving the loss of the person their loved one was before their disease. 

Join CountryHouse and featured presenter Dr. Linda Gillman to gain an understanding of this grieving process and valuable insight on how to successfully navigate these emotions. A Q&A session will be held following the presentation. Refreshments will be served. 

 Tuesday, November 12, 2024 

2:00 – 4:00 p.m. 

CountryHouse, 2005 Iron Point Road, Folsom, CA 95630 

Space is limited. RSVP to Kim by November 6 to save your spot by emailing KJohnsen@countryhouse.net, calling (916) 836-8022 or submitting a request using the online form below:
