When a family member falls ill, often times our lives are thrown into a tizzy. We do our best to balance trips to the hospital, learning about the illness, getting meals done, and updating friends and family on the situation.

Yet we get frazzled and frayed. [CareFlash](http://www.careflash.com) promises to help people when they need it the most-during times of sickness and stress.

After living through a two month ordeal in which his father-in-law was in Intensive Care, and seeing the second plane hit the World Trade Center on 9/11, Jay Drayer left his CFO position and founded CareFlash.

CareFlash provides blogs to update [family members](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/senior-care), a calendar to help in [scheduling meals or caretaking time](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/care-plan), high class educational animations and more. Best of all, these services are provided free to registered users.

It is a clean and well thought out interface that promises to make our lives easier, even in the toughest of times.
