Making Alzheimer’s Disease Just A Memory


Good news about Alzheimer’s Disease comes out almost every day. This is because the Alzheimer’s Association and others are contributing to new and better research. You can help in the fight against Alzheimer’s too. Adamsky Law Offices has put together a team for Memory Walk 2007. The walk will take place on September 30, 8:30 AM, at Boarding House Park in Lowell.

Memory Walk is the major fund-raising event of the Alzheimer's Association. It’s a fun stroll through historic downtown Lowell. You can raise funds and not even walk if you like, just join in the party at Boarding House Park. Since 1993, Memory Walk in Massachusetts has raised more than $6 million to help over 140,000 individuals battling Alzheimer's disease and related disorders. More than $1.3 million alone was raised last year.

Our team is looking for more members to walk with us (and/or raise funds) and we are looking for donations. You can help us out in several ways. Mail your donation check to our office (269 Middlesex Road, Tyngsboro, MA 01879 – made payable to the Alzheimer’s Association.) Go to our Team Adamsky Law Offices page and make an online donation by credit card. Join our team – call or stop by our office for a sign-up form, or join our team online – and get pledges and donations from your family and friends. Please join us in making Alzheimer’s Disease just a memory.


September 30, 8:30 AM

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...

WILL YOU REALLY NEED LONG TERM CARE?

By Edward H. Adamsky             “The potentially catastrophic consequences of becoming disabled and needing long-term care is arguably the gravest financial risk that older adults face” says an Urban Institute report. But, will it happen to you? And, if so, have you saved enough money to pay for it? These are the worries we all face as we age. This is a worry even for younger folks because an accident or illness could trigger the need for care at any time.             The Urban Institute report shows that even though there are 6 million older Americans who need assistance with their activities of daily living, only about 500,000 folks are actually in nursing homes. Some use paid at-home care and many rely on unpaid family care. It seems that your chances of needing and paying for expenses care are relatively low. The stated average cost in the report is $138,000 for the ...

Stratfor - When Things Go Bad

I regularly read reports from Stratfor - an information service that comments on world affairs, terrorism and even personal safety.  This report is good reading to help anyone survive a bad situation. I thought it was worth repeating. When Things Go Bad By Scott Stewart Over the past several weeks, we [Stratfor] have discussed a number of different situations that can present a common problem to people caught up in them. First, we discussed how  domestic terrorism remains a persistent threat  in the United States, and that despite improvements in security measures since 2001,  soft targets still remain vulnerable to attack  by terrorist actors driven by a variety of motivations. Due to the devolution of the jihadist threat toward the grassroots, there is also a growing trend of jihadist actors using armed assaults instead of bombing attacks. We also discussed the  continuing problem of workplace violence , and finally, we discussed last week...
