I email someone every morning with an email that is titled Up. No deep discourse. Just a sentence saying what I plan to do that day. They either send or reply to me with the same. If we have not heard from each other by 11:00 we try text. If that does not work we contact their local police and ask for a welfare check. I also send a daily meme to another person. I may ask if they care to get in on the scheme. That is really smart. More people should do this if they have the resources/capacity for it. There are paid services that basically do the same thing. Wow, are you located in the USA? You hear about these types of things but always in Japan (e.g. grandchildren for hire or the other way around grandparents for hire) but I didn't think we had any in the USA. -Ali
