You Can Find Joy in the Journey When Living with Chronic Diseases
Scott Greenberg, Tino Negri and Allison Negri will host a panel discussion on how to make the most of the reality of aging and enable those living with chronic diseases to live their best life possible. As award-winning author and host of “OMG, I’m Getting Older and So Is My Mom,” Scott has discussed, interviewed and examined a myriad of issues that seniors confront that they were unprepared for. From long-term care insurance to which medical-ologist is for you, he has presented on all subject matter confronting aging seniors.

So, as life surprises people, how do families navigate the changes they face? Tino will help people discover that there can be joy in that journey.

Tino’s dynamic and engaging presentation style will keep the audience on the edge of their seats and give them tips and tools that they can apply to their unique situations. Allison Negri will set the landscape of when and how to access help, including warning signs, how to select the appropriate type of assistance, payor sources, regulations and more.
The panel will be moderated by Melissa Morante, partner of ComForcare who will start by asking questions that the audience wants to know the answers to, but is afraid to ask. We will have time for audience participation as well.
