Hi Rafael:

I find your presentation very informative and casual (which works very well with caregivers as it doesn't intimidate them).  It is also very reassuring to get the facts straight and especially from the right authorities.  Hopefully, more people, especially caregivers will be able to attend your seminar as it will, no doubt, benefit them tremendously.
