I'm 69 years old. I live alone. Every morning I go to my basement to jump rope.
One day it hit me — nobody knows I'm down there. If something happened, how long before anyone thought to check?
So I built Thanks For Checking. For myself.
That was over a year ago. I use it every single day. My ex-wife is my designated contact — the person who gets the notification if I go quiet. She may be my ex. But we still love each other. And she takes it seriously.
When she told me about the man from her church — the empty chair, nobody knowing — she said she immediately thought of this. That's exactly why it exists.
If you live alone, your people deserve to know you're okay. And you deserve to stop being invisible.
