What it means when someone finally knows your child.

“Now I’m not the only one holding it. Anya is too.”

After a few minutes uploading documents to Anya, I got real excited. It was so easy. I just click on a PDF on my computer, upload it to Anya, and it provides a summary and tells me which Pocket Entry I should keep the document in. So fast, just a few clicks. I started uploading more documents in no time at all.

Before Anya, I was the one holding all of it — every form, every account, every provider contact.

Now I’m not the only one holding it. Anya is too.

“The first time we asked Anya a question that required her to synthesize her knowledge of our son, we were stunned by how well she ‘knew’ him.”

When we first started Brian’s transition, we knew we had to share what we knew about our son with those who would care for him when we no longer could. As we started trying to compile all the information in our minds and our files, we felt overwhelmed. Then with Anya we were given simple prompts that allowed us to compile a very complete record of “Brian.”

We uploaded Brian’s records, his care history, and the personal details that make him who he is. Unbeknownst to us, Anya was learning about Brian.

When we asked how to tell Brian about his move, Anya told us to tell him early and repeatedly — because he handles change better when he knows ahead of time. That’s exactly right.

Anya even knew to mention speaking clearly and directly in front of Brian because he’s hard of hearing. She understood the little things that matter most.

We believe Anya will be able to help the people caring for Brian long after we’re gone, because she knows his real story.
