Question
HI!  Do you know of any specific games for alz people that can help keep them occupied?  I read of them but cannot remember where.  This was a game that could be purchased that they could work with their hands.  Thanks for any help!

Answer
Jeannette,  Sorry I have delayed getting back to you.  I have been trying to figure out what game you are speaking of and I am sorry to say I have no idea.  Have you asked the Alzheimer's Association?  

I know that is a book called the Brain Bible, which has different things in it to help keep people's brain sharp, but I don't know what game you are talking about.

Sorry!  Paula
