Anonymous Letter on Trash

Our law office received an anonymous letter regarding some trash spilled on Broad Street in Nashua on June 16, 2011. The letter noted that our name was found on a prescription bottle (and I assume some sort of internet search was done to match the name). That trash was not ours and has nothing to do with the Adamsky Law Offices nor the Adamsky family. Mrs. Adamsky is a Registered Pharmacist and her name appears on every bottle when she fills a prescription. The bottle probably belonged to one of her patients.

Thank you to the good person who picked up that trash. We understand from your letter that it was disposed of properly and that the confidentiality of the careless person who dropped this trash was maintained. You are to be commended for your kind act. And, we agree that everyone should be careful with their garbage and see that it is properly handled.

And, we remind everyone to review their procedures for disposing of sensitive information such as prescription bottles. It is recommended that you soak off the label before you dispose of it. Also, if you have unused prescription medicines, please check with your local authorities for the best way to dispose of them safely and securely.

Knee Surgery OK for Octogenarians

Knee replacement surgery can improve the quality of life even for very elderly patients, according to a study presented at the 2009 Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) . The study found that patients in their 80s can benefit both physically and socially from knee replacement surgery, also called total knee arthroplasty (TKA), once thought too risky for the very elderly. “As patients are living longer, there is an upward trend in the demand for quality of life among the elderly population,” said Edsel Arandia, M.D., lead author of the study and an orthopaedic surgeon at Philippine Orthopaedic Center and a Fellow at Singapore General Hospital. “As patients age, debilitating diseases like arthritis of the knee begin to develop. We conducted this study to determine the viability of TKA in octogenarians and to learn whether their quality of life improves after TKA.” Dr. Arandia and his team reviewed data from 128 patients older than 80 years of age wh...

Clifton B. Kruse, Jr., Leading Elder Law Attorney, Dies at 74

Clifton B. Kruse , Jr., a revered elder law attorney who was admired as much for his kindness and generosity to fellow practitioners as for his grasp of the law, died December 30, 2008, in Colorado Springs, Colorado. He was 74. The cause was complications from Alzheimer's disease. For many in the field, Kruse set the standard for all that an elder law attorney can and should be. One of elder law's founding fathers, he combined a gentlemanly charm, warmth and caring with one of the sharpest and most ethical of legal minds. Wrote Arizona elder law attorney Robert Fleming in a tribute , "In my third of a century of elder law practice I have never met another lawyer who managed to pull together sophistication, heartfelt empathy, intellectual rigor and courtly manner in the same fashion Clifton Kruse projected. He did it, to all appearances, effortlessly. He was a friend and mentor to many in the elder law community (I count myself among those legions)." Kruse was the e...
