Midwest's Largest Dementia Conference Held In St. Paul

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- Hundreds gathered to learn more about memory problems at the Midwest's largest dementia conference in St. Paul on Saturday.

The annual Meeting of the Minds helps patients and families better navigate a diagnosis. The Alzheimer's Association and Mayo Clinic design the day to inform, equip and support patients and caregivers.

More than 1,300 people attended this year's conference.

For the last year, WCCO has been documenting one retired doctor's fight against Alzheimer's.
