The Alzheimer's Association is conducting a 'Chicken Soup for the Soul: Living with Alzheimer’s & Other Dementias' book event at the Barnes & Noble, Hamilton Place on Tuesday, June 10 from 6 - 7 p.m. Local author Kelle Riley from Hixson will read her story “Always A Mother,” one of 101 stories published in this new collection. Representatives from the Alzheimer’s Association will also be present with resources and information regarding free programs and services offered by the Alzheimer’s Association.
"Our goal is to raise awareness about the new collection, Chicken Soup for the Soul: Living with Alzheimer’s & Other Dementia. This collection was created to give those living with Alzheimer’s and their caregivers, family and friends encouragement and comfort on this journey as well as advice. We would also like to raise awareness about our free programs and services that we offer families in the Chattanooga area," officials said.
