For the person with memory loss: simple systems that keep you independent longer
Fill in what you want (all optional)
Your prompt
I have [Your Diagnosis] and I want to keep doing things for myself as long as I can. What I'm forgetting: [What You're Forgetting]. What I still do well: [Still Good]. What I use now: [What You Use Now]. What I refuse to use: [Refuse]. Help me: 1) give me one simple system for each thing I'm forgetting — appointments, pills, names, the stove, where I put things — and make each one something I set up once, not something I have to remember to do, 2) tell me which of these work on paper, because I don't want to depend on a phone I might not understand next year, 3) tell me how to set up my home so it reminds me instead of me reminding myself — labels, a whiteboard by the door, one basket for keys, 4) give me a short script for telling people 'I have memory problems, please ___' without apologizing, 5) tell me what to hand to the person I trust so they can help without taking over. Talk to me directly. Short sentences. I'm not stupid, I'm forgetting.

Initials, not names.
Never paste full names, birthdates, ID numbers, account numbers, or addresses into an AI. Initials and ages work just as well.
It can be confidently wrong.
AI is a brilliant first draft and a terrible last word. Anything about medications, doses, benefits, or legal rights gets checked with a human professional before you act on it.
It's a helper, not a clinician.
None of this is medical, legal, or financial advice, and it is not therapy or an emergency service. If anyone is in danger, call 911, or 988 in the US for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.
