Caring From Far Away

My [Relationship] [Initials] ([Their Diagnosis]) lives in [Where They Live] and I'm in [Where You Live]. Who's near them: [Who's Near Them]. What I can't tell from the phone: [Cant Tell]. How often I can get there: [Visit Frequency]. What I'm most worried about: [What Worries You Most]. Help me: 1) build a 'local eyes' network — neighbor, church, pharmacist, mail carrier, a paid geriatric care manager — and give me the ask for each in one sentence, 2) tell me what a geriatric care manager does, roughly what they cost, and when they're worth it, 3) suggest the simplest tech for checking in that [Initials] would actually tolerate, 4) give me a plan for my next visit: what to check, who to meet, what paperwork to find, so the trip does more than a nice dinner, 5) tell me the signs, from a distance, that it's time for a bigger change, and how to have that conversation with the sibling who lives nearby. Practical. No guilt about the distance.
