The problem

The day someone you love starts needing help, your family becomes a small healthcare operation — with no manager, no system, and no training.

The medication list is in a kitchen drawer. The cardiologist's instructions are in one sibling's memory. The aide's schedule is on a paper calendar taped to the fridge. And the group text can announce that something changed — but three weeks later, it can't tell you what the current plan actually is.

So one person becomes the default coordinator. They carry everything, quietly. Everyone else asks "how can I help?" and never quite finds out. MayLou exists so that no one in your family has to be the filing cabinet.

On the fridgeRosa comes M/W/F... or was it changed to Tuesdays after the fall?
In someone's memoryDr. Patel said to stop the aspirin before the procedure. Which procedure?

Who it's for

Every kind of care circle.

A parent growing older

Three siblings, one med list — no more “did anyone refill it?” MayLou keeps everyone on the same page.

A child with complex medical needs

Therapies, specialists, and school forms in one place both parents and every helper can see.

A spouse with a chronic illness

You carry the appointments; MayLou carries the details, so family can actually help.

"For two years I was the only one who knew everything — every pill, every appointment, every doctor's name. Now it's written down where my brothers can see it. I didn't realize how heavy that was until I put it down." — Early MayLou family, coordinating care for their mother in Ohio
