- The Jumbo Large Print Calendar re-enforces a person’s activity for the current month and for the upcoming months. Patrick's mom has been his customer since the first one he made in 2007 and now she is 92. She loves it because she always knows when birthdays, doctor appointments and special events are coming up. Over the years Patrick has had different people email him and tell him how much this has helped their parents keep something that hangs on the wall every day for them to look at for reminders. One person even said they hung it on the wall outside the bathroom door, so her dad would see it every time he came out of the bathroom. Patrick is a big advocate for simple solutions to help an aging population. Patrick's mom loved the Wall calendar, but wanted something smaller, so the desktop version was created which is now her favorite.
