Abigail Adams...
Our Center's Inspiration
During the American Revolution, John and Abigail Adams, our nation's second President and First Lady, endeavored to identify the issues and challenges of the day and worked toward solutions to bring about a greater good for all.
In this spirit, we have chosen the fight against Alzheimer's Disease as our own mission in society and have appropriately named our Alzheimer's Center after Abigail Adams, a caring and progressive woman.
Abigail's role was not only that of First Lady, but also wife, mother, daughter caregiver and working woman hailing from the South Shore. She was indispensable to the smooth functioning of a very complicated family life. Alzheimer's Disease has complicated the lives of those it touches, and it has brought with it many silent heroes.
If Abigail had been living today, we feel she may very well have been an advocate in the fight against Alzheimer's.... recognizing its impact on current and future generations.
