The Easy Caregiver Planner That’ll Give You Back Your Sanity, Guaranteed.
This caregiver planner focuses on the only 3 things that matter when dealing with a complex cancer schedule.
When my dad was first diagnosed with Lung Cancer, let’s just say it was a bit of a shit show.
Like the morning I just finished brewing my first cup of coffee and the phone rings. “Are you almost here? We need to leave in half an hour if we’re going to make it on time to meet Dr. Kupersmith.”
Wait. What?
Wasn’t Kupersmith tomorrow…
As I scramble around in a panic trying to get dressed and run out the door, I spent the entire car ride freaking out…
How the hell was I going to manage all of this?
I needed an easy way to keep all of this straight. And I already had a crazy busy life, so I was having a difficult time trying to fit everything into an already jam-packed schedule.
And my biggest struggle was trying to figure out what was essential and what could be skipped because EVERYTHING felt catastrophic.
Do you ever wonder if it really has to be this hard?
Me too. (Hint: it doesn’t).
If you’re drowning in the chaos of a cancer situation, trying to stay afloat and manage everything…
There is a lifesaver to keep you above water.
But the trick is… it has to be simple. There is literally no time for complicated.
Caregiver Planner To Keep You On Track
Whether you’re a caregiver, a family member helping someone navigate cancer, or even if you have cancer yourself, one thing is for sure…
Figuring out how to keep track of everything during a cancer situation is really intense.
Your schedule is jam-packed with appointments, treatment, and scans… and more are being scheduled every second.
You’re running all over the place, struggling to remember where you need to be, who you need to see, and what you need to bring with you.
What I desperately needed was a simple approach that would make it crystal clear…
- What I needed to do.
- where I needed to be.
- how I could make the days as easy as possible.
And then I found this.
The Weekly Planning Pages are the easiest way to get a cancer schedule under control.
And they’re simple. Like crockpot vs. cooking simple.
These caregiver planner pages are essential for…
- Simplifying your schedule.
- Looking at the big picture.
- Planning Ahead.
- Figuring out what you NEED to get done.
- Deciding what you can skip.
They’re a foolproof yet flexible system so you know in advance…
- Where you need to be
- What you need to do
- How you can head off as much of the insanity as possible
The Weekly Planning Pages keeps me on track.

Cancer’s Not the Only Thing You Have Going On
Life doesn’t stop when cancer explodes into your family, things just get much more complicated. Cancer doesn’t care if your husband has a clean shirt, or if you have the time or the energy to make dinner after a long day.
In my first few months as a caregiver, I was a mess trying (and failing) to manage all of this. The schedule alone was insane.
I was running in 6 different directions, always rushing, and always missing things.
You know that feeling of sheer panic that you get when you’re late?
You know you’re not going to make it on time, but as you’re speeding to wherever you’re going, you swear to yourself that you’ll do better if you can just make it.
Your heart is racing, your breathing is hitched and the anxiety is enough to send you over the edge…
And then once you get there, you’re praying that you have everything they need (which usually you don’t).
I know all about that. That was my life every single day before this system.
Setting up a plan each week is the ONLY way I’ve been able to manage all of the chaos that comes with being a cancer caregiver.
This caregiver planner will help you get your shit together so you can take care of the important stuff.
And as a bonus, it will save you a ton of time.
Because it helps you slow down and plan ahead, rather than reacting to every little thing.
- What time do I need to leave (to get there on time)?
- What do I need to bring with me?
- And how can I make each day go as smoothly as possible?
Once I found a plan that let me lay out my entire week so I could see everything in one shot.
- I knew exactly where I needed to be
- What I needed to do
- How I could make small adjustments to plan ahead for hectic days
And, I never looked back.
This caregiver planner was one of the best choices I made during a chaotic and hectic time. And having a system to keep everything straight is life-changing.

Here’s What Usually Happens…
Families with cancer are struggling with these intense schedules. It’s like a new kind of “rat race” and you can’t get off the wheel.
So you react and run yourself ragged trying to keep up with EVERYTHING. With no actual plan, you just wing it and do the best you can.
I know, because that’s exactly what we did at first. It’s not just you, EVERYONE responds to a crisis just like that. It makes perfect sense.
The thing is, cancer is not a sprint. Cancer is a marathon.
There’s a better way to manage the INSANE schedule that comes with cancer and an easier way to get organized when things are constantly changing.
It boils down to a simplified planning system that allows you to…
- Identify your priorities (which is HARD, especially when EVERYTHING feels like an emergency).
- Head off as much craziness as possible by planning ahead.
- Simplifying everything you can.
You can learn more about the caregiver planner that does all that here…
Want More Control of This Situation? This is How…
One way people deal with the stress of a cancer diagnosis is to jump in with both feet to stay on top of everything. Next thing you know, you’re driving yourself and everyone else crazy trying to “control” the situation.
It’s human nature. We’re all guilty of this.
We try to “get control of this situation” so we can get ahead, get organized, and have a plan for every possible scenario that could get thrown our way.
I’m gonna tell you a secret. This can’t be controlled.
You can….
- Stay on top of things.
- Find better ways to manage things
- Develop a plan of attack
But you absolutely can’t control the insanity that comes with this disease.
Cancer is uncertain. You’re living on an emotional roller coaster with twists and turns around every bend.
You HAVE MORE CONTROL of this situation when you establish a system that will help you get things organized.
And you have more control of this situation when you know where you need to be, what you need to do, and how to head off as much of the craziness as possible.
The Weekly Planning Pages empower you to take control of your schedule so you have one piece of this fight actually working.
Trust me, that’s a big freaking deal.

Why Does This Matter?
Cancer is incredibly overwhelming. Trying to manage an endless to-do list, where literally everything feels like a priority is a lot of pressure.
This caregiver planner is an easier way to manage your schedule.
In a few minutes, you could have a solid plan for how to tackle the week ahead.
And then to take it a step further, you would have an easy way to prioritize your tasks so you can figure out what’s important and what you can skip.
It’s the best caregiver planner to simplify a stressful, busy schedule down to the easiest possible format. So you know what’s happening as you go into the week.

Let’s Get Started…
If you have a caregiver planner that you use consistently, grab it. If not, you can grab our caregiver planner here…
Monthly Calendar Pages
You may have been compiling this page right along, but if you haven’t… take a few minutes to track down anything already scheduled this month and write it down here. Going forward, this will be much easier.
The monthly calendar pages are a quick look at everything major you’ve got going on for the month. Appointments, overnight stays, scheduled treatments, scans…
Your whole month is quickly visible at a glance making it easier to break down week by week onto the weekly pages.

Weekly Pages
The most important part of a caregiver planner are the weekly pages.
There are only 3 things that matter for your weekly plan.
- Where do you need to be?
- What do you need to do?
- And how can you make it all go as smoothly as possible?
THINK ABOUT YOUR WEEKLY TO-DO LISTS
- Appointments
- Pharmacy runs
- Scans
- Treatment
- Bloodwork
- Picking up kids
- Grocery lists
- Grocery shopping
- Soccer games
- School concerts
- Kids home from school
- Work schedule
- Scheduled overtime
- Errands (haircuts, oil changes)
- Defrosting meat for dinner
Once you have a list of what’s going on this week, break it all down day by day on the weekly schedule … (Pro tip: Use a pencil or a Frixon pen so you don’t make a mess when things change. Things are ALWAYS changing).

Daily Pages
If you need the details that a daily page gives you, so you can get a clear breakdown of every aspect of your day… You can use those to break your week down even further.
Heads up though, I only use these pages for extremely hectic days that I can’t simplify (which is rare).
I find it’s easier for me to work from the weekly pages. But the daily pages are in there if you need them.

Head Off As Much Craziness as Possible.
There are SO MANY supporting details for the week and ways you can simplify and manage them.
Things like…
- What time do I need to leave?
- How can I stack tasks and make fewer trips?
- How I can run the week as efficiently as possible?
By tackling this stuff now, you’ll have a plan for dinner on the night you don’t get home until 8 pm.
You’ll have a plan to tackle, dishes, laundry, shopping lists, and anything else that might come up during the week.
By preparing ahead to make sure everything gets covered you create a FLEXIBlE plan to make sure the week goes as smoothly as possible.
As an exciting bonus, this system AUTOMATICALLY creates extra time to do whatever you want (and saves you money).
When you’re overwhelmed and exhausted, you forget things. Like when you get home and realize you forgot to pick up toilet paper. Now you either have to drive back to the store or pay double the price at the gas station for a few rolls to hold you over.
That stuff adds up. And it slowly sucks up your time (and your money).
By looking at the week as a whole, you can make a flexible plan for all those little things (that turn out to be big issues when they’re forgotten)…
Pull the meat out of the freezer for dinner, pick up cash for the City, and change the oil on the car before the 200-mile drive on Friday
Because If you don’t have a plan to tackle those little details, then you’re going to waste a ton of time and energy dealing with all that nonsense stuff.

Bill Pay Checklist
This page is a LIFE SAVER.
When our cancer journey started, it never occurred to me how drastically everything would change.
Things that you naturally do all the time get missed and you won’t even realize it.
While we were running around trying to make sure everything was set to start treatment…
Every bill that I owed was either late or completely forgotten. My husband and I spent the next month trying to catch up and figure out what was paid/not paid so we could get back on track.
- Just mark the boxes as you pay your bills for the month, so you always know where you’re at and you can adjust as you need to.
You can find this page and more in the Weekly Planning Pages…
Planning Day
Planning day for me is always Saturday, but you can do it any day of the week. It gives me a chance to look at the schedule as a whole so I know where I need to be and I can plan out the “supporting details” for the week.
I look at anything that might come up so that I can plan ahead as much as possible.
And it takes me less than an hour…
- Add schedule doctor appointments
- I plan out dinner
- Order groceries online
- Figure out when I’m going to pick up my groceries
- Plan for kid’s games and practices for the week (to make sure they have clean uniforms and water/ Gatorade for every game/practice)
- Plan for days I’m gone all day
- Arrange any kid pickup
- Run GPS to any new appointments so I can plan routes and times
- Pull the meat out of the freezer for dinner the next day
By planning this stuff out ahead of time, I’m literally solving problems before they become a problem. It makes the week go so much smoother and it’s the only system that has allowed me to manage all of the insanity that comes with a cancer schedule!
Stack things whenever possible.
Appointments, errands, grocery pickup, pharmacy runs. I stack everything that I can.
This way I’m not making extra trips to the grocery store when I can easily do it while I’m already out running around.
This one simple trick saves me a lot of extra time and a lot of extra stress.
Does This Have Pages for Medical Information?
It doesn’t. The Weekly Planning Pages focuses solely on simplifying an insane schedule week by week so that nothing gets missed.
The EASIEST way to organize medical information for someone with cancer is to create a DIY Cancer Binder that you can take with you to all of your appointments.
It’s quick, it’s mobile, and if you use this FREE printable Cancer Binder Pack you’ll have every question you’ll get asked at your fingertips. It covers insurance information, medical history, medication list, and other important documents. It’s a great way to keep track of important information you’ll be asked over and over again during doctor visits.
We have step-by-step instructions on how to create a Cancer Binder here in less than an hour…
What’s the Investment?
It has to be affordable enough for anyone who is struggling with this.
That’s why The Weekly Planning Pages will be offered at a very special rate of just $7.
When you put that into context, it’s pretty amazing to consider that for less than you would pay for a meal at Mcdonald’s, you will have the power to change your sanity with The Weekly Planning Pages.
Buy it once and you have it for life (including all updates) so you’ll never need to purchase another caregiver planner.
