Hi there – I just wanted to say that we (my sister Deb and I ) really enjoyed your and Karen’s presentation and the information was very helpful. We are trying to support our Dad, who is 90 and looking after our Mom, who is 89 and struggling with dementia. We will follow through with the suggestions and share them with our Dad. Was great to see you – was that Emma beside you in the beginning? Hopefully, we’ll see you both in person one day soon!
