Thank you so much for having me. I'm so honoured to be part of this meeting. My dad was a vet, as were most of my aunts and uncles, and I still have one uncle who is happily living in the Perley in Ottawa. This topic is near and dear to my heart.
I am chair of a registered charity called Caregiving Matters. We were founded in 2008 and we're a little bit different. We are an Internet-based charity. Our mission is to offer education and support to family caregivers. Everything we do is virtual, and on our website you will find literally dozens and dozens of topics that relate to family caregivers, everything from caregiving to elder abuse to estate planning to power of attorney. We have a wide range of topics, and I'll be happy to share my thoughts as we go through this.
Thank you.
