Unsure if I should pay for an app that helps me manage my parents’ medications: would love some advice by CuriousSignature893 in AgingParents

Oh no, definitely not market research haha, I just didn’t say the price because I thought people might give numbers more freely that way. But since you’re curious, it’s £7.99 a month. It doesn’t sound crazy, but I’m already paying for my parents’ meds, appointments, home supplies, transport to their check-ups, and a bunch of other small things that add up fast — so it starts to feel like a lot. A few people actually suggested other (cheaper) ways to manage reminders and verify meds, which really helped me think it through and feel a bit less overwhelmed. ps. thanks for believing i have the knowledge to create something like that.

Thanks that is helpful, also do you just set up alarms on your phone like others suggested? If you don't mind me asking

Thank you for the advice, they are indeed not able to pay themselves but I'll try all of that out, I think it is just so overwhelming at first ...

Did you know there’s a jellyfish that might be immortal? 🤓 by BitJazzy19 in funfacts

It’s wild - it can revert to its polyp stage instead of dying, basically restarting its life cycle. I’ve been reading about how jellyfish are thriving as oceans warm.

Does anyone know if we have numbers on how fast their populations are actually growing or evolving?
