I’ve been working lately on a planner specifically tailored to moms of children with medical needs and it now is live on Amazon! Inside you’ll find places to record things like:
Diagnoses
Doctors
Meds List
Surgeries
Emergency Bag Packing List
and more!
You’ll also find pages to help you think through trauma triggers for you and your child, brainstorming what behavior might be communicating, simply daily joys you can remind yourself to take advantage of to help you get through the day, and also plenty of blank pages for you to record whatever you need.
Each month is a different color scheme to promote calm and make life just a bit nicer in even small areas. You’ll find a place to think through monthly goals, self care ideas, supplies ordering, “inchstone’ recording to keep you focused on progress even if it isn’t according to the typical milestones charts, and others.
Each week has pages for daily tasks, habit tracking, meds/therapy tracking, weekly gratitude, meal ideas, therapy notes, and even MORE pages for notes. Because when you’ve got several appointments each week, you just need places to WRITE THINGS DOWN!
I created a black and white version as well which has a lower printing cost and therefore can be sold at a much cheaper price. I want it to be accessible to as many people as posssible.
It’s not a perfect planner. I wish I’d had more options for binding and sizing and papers and all of it, but I hope it’s a good enough START. I’m limited on the minimum price by the printer, but I tried to keep it close to that with just enough profit for me to hopefully cover the costs of the software and such so that I can do it again next year and the year after and on and on.

I am so hopeful this can be helpful to many moms of children with medical needs. It’s a life full of complications and things that aren’t even remotely designed for our chaos. Maybe this will be ease things just a bit.
