“My wife was a professional whose life was halted when she was diagnosed with Frontal Temporal Degeneration at 60 years old. She was bored , depressed and not able to function. She now found purpose and meaning in attending the adult day program at the JCC. Thank you SJJCC, for giving my wife a place that she looks forward to going every day. I am now able to work, not feel guilty, and she is not calling me 50 times a day. I can be productive and not lose my job.”
