Hello Everyday has a customer, Jan. Like clockwork, we get a message from Jan asking to switch her notifications between her niece and her son.

This is what aging in place needs and looks like. It’s informal. It’s needing support but not wanting to be a burden. It’s tag teaming.

I am glad that we can be there for people like Jan. And let her live her life on her terms.

Pat called the customer support line today.

Pat had heard about Hello Everyday at a Village event and was intrigued. Her husband, who was a mechanical engineer and a tech enthusiast, passed away a year ago. An extrovert, Pat described her journey beyond the “fog of grief”. She heard about the Village to Village Network and joined her local chapter. She became a greeter for the Village.

Pat’s daughter lives the next state over and worries about her. Her son is a bit more independent. Pat had checked out our website and loved the unobtrusive nature of the Hello Sensor. I explained some of the other benefits. Pat subscribed right there.

Then Pat shared an event that took place in March - she was talking on the phone with a friend and while chatting popped her vitamins into her mouth. Her mouth was dry and the vitamins all lodged in her throat. Unable to talk or swallow, she knew she only had a minute. She tried drinking water - it wouldn’t go in. Finally her speech pathologist training kicked in - she used her fingers to move the pills in her throat at her clavicle until she could swallow! Her friend was yelling into the phone, helpless. Pat’s main concern - her 30lb dog.

Pat gave us permission to share her story - to illustrate how quickly our independence can also make us vulnerable.

Be like Pat.

Hello Everyday got this message yesterday:

T in Village Without Walls had a stroke on Tuesday, May 26. Hello-Everyday alerted her son Travis who came to her home and found her on the bathroom floor. He called 911 and an ambulance took her to St Vincent Hospital where she was admitted and continues to be in the hospital.

Hello-Everyday is turning out to be so good for our Village. We really appreciate all your dedication to helping older adults living at home alone.

Hello Everyday was featured in Tualatin Life!

The Tualatin Senior Resource Fair was a hub of activity, filled with knowledgeable vendors and engaged attendees. When Susan Noack first invited me to share writing duties with her, she explained that this column was meant to help seniors navigate a senior world. During a break from my volunteer dut...

Older adults often struggle with flip-the-script moment that they face where they are overwhelmed and facing difficult choices. They are bewildered as to how they got here.

The issue is that most of their life their capabilities met or exceeded their needs. And almost over night, they are facing a situation or several, where their needs out-weigh their capabilities.

Suddenly they need help but they aren’t used to asking for help. They resist. It’s gets worse. The cycle continues.

We all need a village around us at some point. The key is to take the help well before you get to 80% capacity. The ones in control asked for help earlier and maintained the balance between their needs and their capabilities.

Hello Everyday can help reduce the burden. That’s how we designed it from the ground up.

Stay 💪💪
