Frances Kakugawa's Blog 
Hi Frances,
Thank you for sending me your lecture schedule. I’m going to do my best to be there on Sept 29 or 30.
In addition to your regular posts in your blog, I always read your column in the Hawaii Herald. Your advice to caregivers is so enlightening, I bask in the light of your words — always so forgiving and healing and compassionate.
Mahalo! Karen
Thank you, Karen. I’m on the program on the first day of conference. Come say hello to me. I’m sharing your comments with Hawaii Herald so they won’t fire me. 🙂
