Alzheimer's Association, Chicago, IL; Press Release; 9/15/25
In conjunction with National Hispanic and Latino Heritage Month, the Alzheimer’s Association is premiering "Memories of My Grandfather" ("Recuerdos de mi abuelo"), a five-episode mini telenovela aimed at encouraging Hispanic and Latino families to have open discussions about memory loss, diagnosis and caregiving across generations. The series, available in both English and Spanish, follows the emotional journey of a multigenerational Hispanic family in the United States after their grandfather’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis. The telenovela will be screened during two webinars hosted by the Alzheimer’s Association: one in English on Sept. 30 and one in Spanish on Oct. 7. Both webinars will feature a moderated discussion hosted by actress, film producer and Telemundo news anchor Gabi Del Moral. ... Both webinars are free and open to the public. Register for the English-language webinar or the Spanish-language webinar.
