Suggested Caring Alert System ...

[Kyotai]

Good idea on this everyone. I think my wife would know to reach out. Some of us are connected on social network sites like fbook and it would be easier to receive word of a members sudden life event. But for the rest (I'm not on Facebook), not so easy. The thought had crossed my mind of having new members list emergency contacts in case of emergencies (optional perhaps)

I agree that entrusting someone with emergency contact info sounds like a good idea. But not listing that publicly. I think we should wait to see what Jundo has in mind at this juncture.

Certainly. Information to be exchanged between Jundo and a member privately. It was just a thought.

I might add that if I'm correct this forum software also has an option to alert someone when a member hasn't logged in for x time. Though that might not be as effective as a buddy system

A great idea.

Hi Vincent,

I may let you mention it when we get the new system going, but we may try something simpler first. You can certainly introduce it though once the thread gets going.

Ishin,

It has been a sticky thread for quite some time and new ones are rarely added without some discussion. We can't make you read them; there is only so much we can do!

Thanks Dosho

Thing is. I have been here 2 years and just learned of it today.

It is like you are selling water by the riverside, and some of us are asking where we can buy water. Sorry for being dense.

That is true. Like a big monastery with lots of building with lots of rooms ... probably good to walk all around, poke around and have a look in all the dusty corners sometimes. Lots of things to discover!

My family knows all about this Sangha. They see me sitting live-online most mornings and Zazenkai on Friday evenings. It is part of their lives too. If I got run over by car or something Treeleaf would be contacted along with other friends and family. The Sangha contact info is on the phone message board.

The same is here too and have someone who would notify Treeleaf if I was unable to.

Greetings all.
I think this is a wonderful idea.
I would ask my wife, and my daughter to be my points of contact.
Just let me know where to submit the information.

I'm impressed. I've encountered this thread a while ago. As I was in a situation depending on others almost a year ago, I've procratinated a "do in case of my death" (or similar conditions) file since then, having experienced my family did do the right things. But though they know about you, I think they do not understand the meaning for me.
Thanks for getting me organize a bit.

Gassho,
