Dear Gail – You are a rare human! Few people have courage, conviction, wisdom, strength, and endurance like you. The conversations about caregiving from all stakeholders are more informed and constructive because of you. And, because of your creation and leadership of the NAC, conversations will always be able to rise above political and individual interests, in the US and globally. A fitting quote may come from Robert Kennedy, “Few will have the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total; of all those acts will be written the history of this generation.” I would argue you have changed an arch of history and certainly you’ve written the chapter about caregiving. Congratulations for what you have accomplished and for stepping up to counsel the next great generation of NAC’s leadership. Best wishes to you.
