I live in Seattle and Mom's in Ohio. I call on Sundays, but Sundays were becoming a status report — did you eat, did you take your pills. Clara calls her Tuesdays and Thursdays and they just talk. Last week I got a summary that said Mom had been describing the dress she wore to her first dance. I'd never heard that story in 51 years.

— Karen, 51, Seattle

I'll be honest, I signed up because I felt bad about how little I call. What I didn't expect was to look forward to the summaries. It's 90 seconds of reading and I know how she's doing and what's on her mind. Then when I do call, I already have something to ask about.

— David, 47, Austin

The summary mentioned Dad had said his knee was 'acting up again' and he'd skipped his walk twice. He hadn't told me. I called, we got him seen, it was manageable. Clara didn't diagnose anything — she just wrote down what he said, and I read it.

— Robert, 55, Denver

I'm 24 and I'd never asked my grandfather about the war because I didn't know how. The transcripts gave me the questions. Now I call him and say 'tell me more about the boat' and he lights up.

— Jordan, 24, Chicago

MeetClara is a companion service — not a medical service, and not a medical alert system or a replacement for 911.
