SUMMARY:Finding Hope in the Journey of Dementia\, with Dorothy Linthicum
DESCRIPTION:Emmanuel Church\nChestertown\, Maryland\nTuesday\, April 16: 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m.\nLunch and Conversation\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \nWe gratefully offer this conversation in collaboration with Emmanuel Church\, Chestertown. \nJoin us with Dorothy Linthicum and explore notions of prevention\, the basics of a diagnosis\, and the hope found in possibilities. Whether you are a family or community member\, a caregiver\, or a pastoral leader\, this topic is universally vulnerable. How can we help one another face the diagnosis of dementia in our families\, among friends\, or in ourselves? \nBrené Brown writes: “Vulnerability is the birthplace of love\, belonging\, joy\, courage\, empathy\, and creativity. It is the source of hope\, empathy\, accountability\, and authenticity.” Let us be reminded of the power of vulnerability\, not to be avoided\, but embraced\, and in embracing taking a first step toward easing our fears. \nWe will explore how the self is never destroyed despite the severity of a disease or condition\, an understanding that comes from many fields\, including psychology\, neurology\, psychiatry\, philosophy\, and spirituality\, among others. Dorothy is co-author\, along with Janice Hicks\, of Redeeming Dementia: Spirituality\, Theology\, and Science. Bring all of your questions\, whether you are family members seeking to learn more\, caretakers exploring practices\, or pastoral leaders meeting community members where they are in their journey. \nPlease arrive by 11:30 a.m. and enjoy a simple lunch before the presentation and conversation begin at 12 noon.\nRegister here: https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/ev/reg/7gam2xw
