Inspired by my father’s traumatic brain injury, this is a light-hearted way to start the conversation no one really wants to have.

Whether you’re 16 or 60, we all have a lot of “stuff’ in our lives these days. This journal is filled with prompts and space for all of the minutia in our lives.

Examples include: Who will take care of your pet(s)? Who is their vet? If you have a community mailbox, which is yours? Email addresses and passwords. Where are your legal papers (will, POAs, DNR instructions, etc.)? Who is your lawyer? Do you have keyless entry and if so, what is the passcode? Have you made final arrangements – who with? Rewards cards. Loans, mortgages, rent payments, store cards, bank accounts, safe deposit boxes and investments.

These topics and so much more are addressed in this handy journal - with lots of extra room for your personal needs.

Simply put, they help others help you when you can’t speak for yourself.

There are also pick-up and mailing options available (because I’m my father’s caregiver, it’s challenging for me to leave the house - sorry!). You can email me at jody@maffett.ca

There are also a few independent stores carrying them:

- Books on Beechwood, New Edinburgh
- Crafters Collective in Carleton Place

...and my father is doing okay (he lives with me now).
