When a family member falls ill, often times our lives are thrown into a tizzy. We do our best to balance trips to the hospital, learning about the illness, getting meals done, and updating friends and family on the situation.
Yet we get frazzled and frayed. CareFlash promises to help people when they need it the most-during times of sickness and stress.
After living through a two month ordeal in which his father-in-law was in Intensive Care, and seeing the second plane hit the World Trade Center on 9/11, Jay Drayer left his CFO position and founded CareFlash.
CareFlash provides blogs to update family members, a calendar to help in scheduling meals or caretaking time, high class educational animations and more. Best of all, these services are provided free to registered users.
It is a clean and well thought out interface that promises to make our lives easier, even in the toughest of times.
