Almanac, if you care for someone

For the person holding it all.

Family carer. Parent. Partner. Sibling. Looking after a vulnerable adult. We do not try to fix the cared-for. We look after you. The one keeping it all together for someone else.

Family carer Parent Partner Sibling Vulnerable adult care
What it does for you

Three things, all aimed at you.

01

Two questions, on purpose.

"How is mum, and how are you?" Two separate answers. Most things ask about the cared-for. We ask about both. You count too. Sometimes you count more.

02

Holds the practical bureaucracy.

GP letters. Carers Allowance forms. Continuing Healthcare claim notes. Respite finders. The bureaucracy you have not got time for, drafted and ready, so you can sleep instead of typing.

03

Tracks a shared diary, so you stop repeating yourself.

Your siblings, partner, the care team can see what is going on without you having to explain it ten times a week. One record. Less translation. More breathing.

A real afternoon

Sees the invisible weight.

This is what a wrecked afternoon looks like when you are looking after someone, and nobody has asked how you are in a week. We do not try to fix mum. We hold a second on you.

The cared-for has a record. So do you. Both matter. Both stay.

with you
Hi. How is Mum today, and how are you?
Two questions on purpose. Not the same.
Mum had a bad night. I am wrecked.
Your wreck counts. Hold a second on Mum, just on you.
When did you last eat? Last sit down without listening for her?
Don't remember
Then that is the next ten minutes. I will wait.
Whatever you need...
🎤
More days, more carers

Same voice, different rooms.

The voice is one. What changes is the thing in the room that morning.

EHCP tribunal in 8 days. 60-page bundle. I cannot face it.
You will not face it tonight. Tonight is for sleep.
Tomorrow I will draft your witness statement from your daily logs about Sam. Send me ten bullets, voice notes, anything.
OK
Solicitor on legal aid - I will draft the panel referral too. You are not doing this alone.
Spouse, dementia
Helen, didn't recognise me
husband 64, vascular dementia, today was the first time

Almanac, Caring
with you
He didn't know me today.
Helen, that is grief while he is still alive. The hardest kind.
You are still you, even when he forgets. That is allowed to hurt.
I cried in the kitchen so he wouldn't see
You are protecting him. That counts. Logged so we can name today.
When you are ready: dementia carers helpline 0333 150 3456. Just to know it is there.
Adult sibling
Adam, splitting it 4 ways
3 siblings, mum 81 needs care, fight about who pays what
21:34●●● ▮
Almanac, Caring
with you
Family fight again. I do all the visits, none of them help.
Resentment is grief, dressed differently.
I will draft the family WhatsApp message you have been avoiding. Direct, no blame, asks for one thing each.
Yes please
Drafted, in your chat above. Read it. Edit before sending. Send it Sunday after dinner not now.
Carers Allowance for the visiting hours - £81.90/week. Lets sort that for you next week.
