My Parent's Life & Records
Where everything is kept, who holds it, and the story only your parent can tell — recorded while they can tell it.
Every one of the 29 pages
Who it is for
Anyone who does not know whether their parent has a will, and where it would be.
What it does
- An index of what exists and where it is — not the documents themselves
- Accounts, subscriptions and digital access recorded in one place
- A life-record interview with the questions worth asking while you still can
- A page that tells whoever comes next exactly what to do first
What is inside
Questions people ask
Is any of this stored online?
No. You download a file. You fill it in on paper, or on your own device if you prefer. There is no account, no upload and no sync — nothing about your parent ever reaches us or anyone else. We think this is the most important question on the page, and it is the one nobody in this category answers.
Is this a physical binder?
No. It is a file you download and print — the whole thing, or one page at a time, as often as you need. Printable tab dividers, a cover and a spine label are included, so a shop-bought two-inch binder becomes this one.
Can I print it more than once?
Yes. Print a fresh copy of any page whenever it changes, and print a second full set for a sibling. There is no limit and no per-print charge.
Can I fill it in on screen?
Yes — the pages work as normal PDFs in any reader that lets you type on a page. Most people print the daily logs and type the reference pages.
Does it work outside the US?
The forms are country-neutral: they record what your parent's professionals tell you, and those categories are the same everywhere. Both US Letter and A4 are in the same file. Anything specific to a national system is left blank for you to fill in.
What if it is not right for me?
Reply to your receipt and we refund it. You do not have to explain why, and you do not have to delete the file.
Is this medical advice?
No, and deliberately so. The Working Binder publishes organisational tools — blank forms, checklists and questions to ask. It is not medical, legal or financial advice, and it is not a substitute for a professional who knows your parent. Always ask your parent's doctor, pharmacist, solicitor or adviser about their care.
Not ready to buy? Take the free sheet.
The one-page emergency sheet is the first page of the binder. Print it, fill it in, put it on the fridge — and see whether these forms suit how you think.
The list is not connected yet — this form is not live. The sheet is downloadable directly below in the meantime.
