IN MEMORIAM

This website is dedicated to Dr. Hughes' son, Greg, who exhibited many ADHD characteristics as a young toddler. By age 15 he was diagnosed with AD/HD and placed on stimulant medication, but refused treatment -- it was too late! He ran away from home and became further involved with the drug culture. Over the years his addiction became stronger ... his family lost count of the number of drug rehabilitation programs he entered. Eventually it cost him his health and finally his life.

Greg was very intelligent, and to the very end was cognizant of his problems. He was enrolled at the University of Michigan and was interested in psychology. He tried very hard to beat the substance abuse, but it resurfaced from time-to-time. It would get the best of him rendering him powerless.

Greg is the father of two wonderful children. Sara is now 26 and hold a fine arts degree and teaching certificate. She has become a art teacher at a middle school. Zach is age 22 and attends the university. Neither followed their father's drug propensity. Both moved in the direction of being food and health conscious.

Dr. Hughes will continue to help save children with the attention disorders that - as in her son's case - endanger their lives.
