    For living with a chronic or terminal condition

    Living with it, on your terms.

    A check-in cadence you can adjust. A Care Pause for hospital weeks. Quick check-ins on the days you want to send one. And, when the time comes, sealed messages waiting for the people you chose. The order of those things is yours.

    The worry

    There is so much to think about. Conversations you want to have, messages you do not yet feel ready to write, instructions you would rather not hand over too early. Many people put it off until it is too late. Y.O.D.O. lets you take it one private message at a time, on your own schedule, without anyone seeing a thing until the right moment.

    How Y.O.D.O. helps

    • Write at your own pace

      Text, voice, video, or files. Save drafts. Edit any time. Nothing is shared until a passing is verified.

    • Decide who gets what

      Each Recipient sees only the messages you wrote for them. Friends, family, your solicitor, your funeral director, each on their own list.

    • A trusted person can act for you, if needed

      Your Delegates can request a Care Pause when you are in hospital or hospice, so Check-ins do not bother you while you focus on what matters.

    Ways to leave a message

    In the format that feels right for you

    Different people prefer different formats. You can mix and match across Recipients, and change your mind at any time before delivery.

    Voice messages

    Many people find it easier to speak than to write. A short voice note can become the most precious thing left behind.

    Written notes

    Edit at your own pace. Drafts stay sealed until you are ready.

    Video messages

    When seeing your face matters. Entirely optional.

    File attachments

    Practical documents, photographs, or scans for specific people.

    I have things I want certain people to read if I am gone. Not a will, just personal things. There is nowhere safe to leave them.
