THE BAHAMAS ALZHEIMER'S ASSOCIATION

Working Towards a Brighter Future

Alzheimer's and Dementia have an increasing presence in our country, our families and our lives. We all know someone who has struggled with the challenges of living with the disease or caring for a loved one who has the disease. Like other illnesses it is painful to watch. If your loved one lives long enough, the phrase 'once a man, twice a child takes on new meaning. Because of our personal experiences in our families or in our professions, all of our founding members and directors felt the need to create a place where others in need can find help and support. Because of our personal and first hand experience with a mother, or father, or an in law, an aunt or uncle, husband or wife, a loved one, we want to be here for others.
