A proper diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease will spell out the direction to go. Some of the same symptoms indicate other illnesses that are rever­ sible. While Parkinson's disease, strokes and depression can produce the same symp­ toms, these diseases are treatable and some are reversible, or can be cured. Counseling for the family of an Alzheimer's patient helps them cope with their emotions, sort out their needs, and refers them to the available agencies. Each person is unique and each family has its own set of strengths and problems so it is important to assess each case. One of the greatest helps is the support groups, that are evolving for families, such as the local group which meets monthly at Family Alliance in 1.2 miles south of the village of Richmond. The second hearing will be at 2 p.m., Nov. 28, on a request for reclassification from B-i Neighborhood Business District to B-2 Liquor Business District. The property is question is located at 5605 S. Route 31, on the southwest corner of the intersec­ tion of Routes 31 and 176. It con­ sists of - approximately 50,000 square feet. Petitioners are Home State Bank of Crystal Lake, TR2800 and George K. Boudros. Both hearings will be held ir. Room 203 of the McHenry Countv Courthouse, 2200 N. SeminarV Ave., Woodstock. All those who are interested may appear and be heard. Woodstock. The groups meet regularly and accomplish several necessary tasks: education on Alzheimer's disease, up-date on recent research, and sharing. The sharing of experiences and feelings is the most valuable. The group offers a safe place to release the frustrations that only another family member can really understand. Through their own experience, they offer coping methods and acceptance that cannot be found through professionals. There is an Alzheimer's support group in McHenry to help families cope with their stress and problems with Alzheimer's. The group meets on the fourth Wednesday of every month at Family Alliance, Inc., 248 N. Throop St. in Woodstock. All family members of Alzheimer's victims are invited to attend.
