Co-founders Hannah Fogg & Kelly Petersen
Over the past few years, each of our
fathers battled a terminal illness. We
took over the administrative
responsibilities related to our fathers'
households and care. Being organized
helped life run smoothly during a very
difficult time for our families. We kept
asking ourselves, “who would they turn to
if they didn’t have us?” We have a deep
respect and appreciation for maintaining
one’s independence for as long as
possible. We have come to realize that
sometimes one just needs a little help. The experiences with our fathers opened
our eyes to the need for assistance with
bills and paperwork, not solely for seniors
with memory impairment or illness, but
for those with physical limitations or
simply the desire to focus on other things. Our situations also highlighted the
importance of having crucial documents
and information organized and easily
accessible if a loved one needs to get
involved. Our cataloging system is a
useful reference tool for everyday life. It
is also an invaluable resource to be used
when unforeseen circumstances arise,
such as changes in physical or mental
health, a hospital stay or settling an
estate. This system benefits the client,
spouses and the next generation. Taking
these steps early, when healthy and in a
good state of mind, makes these
situations less stressful.
