On\u00a0Thursday, October 30, 2014<\/b>, the Alzheimer’s Association – North Central Texas Chapter will partner with the West Texas Rehabilitation Center to present a screening of the independent feature film\u00a0Angel’s Perch. \u00a0<\/b>The program is scheduled\u00a0from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. in the Board Room at WTRC in Abilene.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Angel’s Perch<\/i><\/b>\u00a0examines the delicate relationship between past and present, memory and loss, as depicted by a family struggling with Alzheimer\u2019s disease.\u00a0 It is the s<\/span>tory of Jack, a successful young architect living in Pittsburgh, who must make the trip to his tiny hometown of Cass, West Virginia, to move his grandmother into an assisted-care facility after she is found wandering outside her home. But what was intended to be a two day, under-the-radar trip becomes more complicated when Jack is unable to move her into an assisted living facility nearby.\u00a0\u00a0Torn between the career opportunity of a lifetime, caring for his last living relative and running from his own painful memories, Jack is forced to choose between standing still or facing the pain of his past, so that he can finally move forward in his life.<\/div>\n

The screening of\u00a0Angel\u2019s Perch<\/b><\/i>\u00a0will be followed by a discussion moderated by Howard Gruetzner, M.Ed, LPC.\u00a0Mr. Gruetzner is Family Care and Education Specialist for the Waco Regional Office of the Alzheimer\u2019s Association\u00a0and\u00a0author of the widely-read\u00a0Alzheimer\u2019s: A Caregiver\u2019s Guide and Sourcebook.<\/i><\/p>\n
