Comments from NASGA Visitors

From a guardianship abuse victim:
The daily blog is an incredible accumulation of horror stories regarding guardianship. I don't know how much time is put into the blog effort daily, it has to be considerable. Thank you.

From an NASGA member:
I take the blog daily with my morning coffee.

From an author:
I just wanted to send a quick "thank you" for posting my book.

From a reader:
You are truly professional and have accomplished the monumental task of producing a web site and blog which rivals other big civil rights and whistleblowing groups that are staffed with experts and far more funding. I am well aware of the full devotion it took from all of you. CELEBRATE!

From a guardianship abuse victim:
Other groups have become part of the problem. NASGA goals are part of the solution. Thanks!

From a retired detective:
If there's ever any questions on the criminal end of things or anything that I can do for you, just shout. :) Hope you're having a good weekend.

From an author:
We have added your link to our site. Thank you.

From a NASGA member:
Good News! Based on last weekend's story about an attorney general arrest of a probate judge for theft of assets from an elderly person, I wrote him about our case. I've just received a very nice letter from him assuring me of his concern for the elderly.

From a NASGA member:
The blog is great, and the cataloging under "Labels" is very helpful for those with special interests.

From a reader:
I am always grateful for your great articles and research.

From a reader:
This site is by far one of the most informative I have ever seen.

From a NASGA member:
Without Nasga and its wonderful,caring and intelligent members-Dan Gross may have just been another dead victim! Thank you again Nasga.

From a reader:
Thank you again for all that you are doing to empower me and others.

From a reader:
Thank you for this terrific blog - priceless

From a reader:
Your blog is truly a masterpiece in progress; a unique and extraordinary compilation of daily news articles nationwide of the many forms of abuses and the abusers of the elderly and the vulnerable, particularly in the guardianship system. Thank you for your hard work, your sacrifices and dedication and your ongoing efforts to expose the truth about guardianships.

From a reader:
Great blog.. you really update it a lot... 428 posts in 2008.... congrats....

From a NASGA member:
Our blog is an asset to use. A visit to our blog is a wake up call to get more involved with the org. It is an incredible work of good documentation and has been categorized by subject and state. This makes it easily available to use in research for our own cases. You are not alone!

From a reader:
NASGA is number one in guardianship abuse advocacy. Other group just copies from this organization. I am glad I found NASGA!

From a reader:
I find the information at the NASGA blog informative, timely and extremely important.

From a NASGA member:
I could say Thank You a hundred times - for your excellent work on the blog - but that wouldn't be enough.
