You MUST have Jacqueline speak to your group. She communicates a powerful message to caregivers, which most just can?t grasp from healthcare professionals. She has lived what they are living and struggled with what they are struggling, which gives her credibility and compassion like no one else. She is absolutely fantastic in her sincere and entertaining presentation! After expenses, we presented the Office on Aging with a $3,235 check for their Senior Emergency Fund, which we would not have been able to do without her help.

Thank you so much for your superb presentation at our Alzheimer's Research Seminar, part of our federally-funded Boston University Alzheimer's Disease Center. The audience included dementia specialists, senior neurologists and neuropsychologists, scientists, nurses, fellows, residents, medical students, clinical research staff, and family caregivers from New England who came specifically to hear you. And, what a fabulous presentation it was! Your ability to combine humor, personal insight, wisdom, and critical meaningful guidance to all of us involved in the web of care for those with dementia was sensational. Each gained useful tips and tools that will enrich our professional practices and personal experiences.

We really enjoyed having you here for several days and appreciated all your extra help to make our 13th Annual CMSA Educational Conference a huge success! The evaluations are extremely positive from professionals and families alike, and we are receiving numerous calls for help because of you. Your presentations were absolutely incredible, standing room only, as you touched so many with laughter and tears. Our Chapter would also like to thank you for the $5 donation per sale of Elder Rage, our favorite guidebook!
