How it works

A gift that stays for twelve weeks.

Twelve weeks, at the pace grief moves.

  1. An envelope tied with a ribbon, and a pen. 1

    Say who it’s for

    Say where to send it

    Their name, their email address, and a few words in your own name.

    Your email address. Nothing else is asked of you.

  2. An open door onto a path in the early light. 2

    Pick the Monday it begins

    It begins on a Monday — the coming one, or one months from now. Grief keeps its own calendar, so you choose the moment.

    Their twelve weeks begin

    The twelve weeks begin

    Three emails a week, quietly, long after the flowers are gone.

    Three emails a week, quietly. One click stops them at any time.

Nobody schedules time off for this

They still reach for the leash or glance at an empty corner. They still listen for paws in the hallway. And somewhere in that first week, someone casually said it was just a pet — and they nodded, because what else do you say?

It wasn’t just a pet. It was family.

Cards get put away, flowers fade, and the house turns quiet again. This offers twelve weeks of gentle company — three times a week — long after the rest of the world has returned to normal.

You still reach for the leash. You still listen for them settling down in the next room. And somewhere in the first week, someone said it was just a dog — and you nodded, because what else do you say.

It wasn’t just a dog.

This is written for exactly that: the grief nobody schedules time off for, in the weeks after everyone else has moved on.

What they receive

What’s included

  • Thirty-six emails

    Three each week for twelve weeks, with quiet check-ins at three, six and twelve months afterwards.

  • Seven recorded messages

    Some weeks a written email isn’t enough. Those weeks come with a short spoken message in my own voice. A full transcript is always included.

  • The Notebook and the Permission Cards

    Printable pages that travel alongside the emails, for the thinking that asks for paper.

  • The Memory Keeper

    In the final week, a printable keepsake gathering twelve sentences from the twelve weeks, to copy out by hand and keep.

  • A choice of start date

    Every journey begins on a Monday. You choose which one — the coming week, or months from now. Grief has no schedule, so neither does this.

  • Nothing to install

    No app, no login, no subscription. It reaches you by email, and one click stops it at any time.

A look inside

This is what reaches the inbox

One of the thirty-six, on a Monday morning in week six — the week everyone else has moved on.

And this is what the recorded messages sound like.

Laughter belongs here too

Dear Sarah,

Laughter belongs here too.

The way they snored with full conviction. The unrepeatable noise when food appeared. The serious dignity they brought to napping.

I know laughing can feel wrong. If there was a decision, it can feel like lightness argues with how serious that choice was. If it was sudden, it can feel like betrayal — how can you smile when they didn’t get to finish their life?

It’s neither. Delight was part of what you were protecting all along.

Smile when you remember them. Laugh out loud when something rises. Both are part of the love.

Warmly,
Martine

Something to hold on to

The emails offer quiet comfort, but some feelings belong off the screen. Alongside the journey comes a tangible companion: a beautifully designed notebook and twelve small permission cards.

Tuck one into a pocket. Rest one beside the morning coffee. Each card offers a gentle reminder — saying the quiet, comforting things that need to be heard right now.

And in the final week, the Memory Keeper: a dedicated space to write down twelve meaningful moments from the journey, creating a lasting keepsake to carry forward.

Is this right for them?

Is this right for you?

Give this gift if

  • They’ve lost a beloved companion — whether it happened yesterday, or long enough ago that the rest of the world has quieted down.
  • You want to offer more than flowers that fade or a card that gets tucked away in a drawer.
  • You don’t quite have the words, but you want them to feel supported for months to come.
  • They are a quiet griever — someone who finds comfort in reading and reflecting at their own pace.

This might not be the right fit if

  • They are seeking professional therapy or clinical care. This is a gentle companion, not a substitute for medical guidance.
  • They prefer an interactive conversation. These messages are meant to be read quietly, with zero pressure to reply.
  • The recipient is a child, as the reflections are written for an adult reader.
  • You aren’t sure they’d welcome digital messages, as 12 weeks of emails is a thoughtful commitment.

This is for you if

  • You’ve lost a dog, cat, horse or other animal companion — recently, or long enough ago that everyone assumes you’re fine.
  • The people around you have moved on faster than you have.
  • You’d rather read something on your own than talk it through with anyone.
  • You want the weeks after to be marked, not simply survived.

This isn’t for you if

  • You’re looking for therapy or clinical treatment. This is companionship, and it isn’t a substitute for professional care.
  • You want a conversation. These emails go one way; nobody is waiting for your reply.
  • You want it to be over quickly. It takes twelve weeks on purpose.
  • You’re buying it for a child. The writing assumes an adult reader.

Who writes this

Hi, I’m Martine.

It all started with a calendar. A dear friend was getting married, so I crafted something special for all 365 days — a few gentle words, a little moment of joy to unwrap, or a simple activity for them to share. Not just to fill the days, but to make sure that for a whole year, they felt truly remembered and cared for.

That’s still at the heart of everything I do. We all need to feel seen, yet so often, that warmth is missing when it matters most. That’s why I personally write every email here and record every message in my own voice.

Twelve weeks of feeling thought of. Twelve weeks of holding onto a life milestone instead of letting it slip quietly by. I’ve poured my whole heart into this.

Questions people ask first

Can it start later?

Yes. Every journey begins on a Monday, and you choose which one right after payment — the coming one, or a Monday months from now. If the day turns out to be wrong, write to us before the first email goes out and we’ll move it at no cost.

What if it isn’t the right fit?

Write to us within 30 days and we’ll refund you in full. See our Refund Policy.

Does it matter which animal was lost?

No. The emails are written about the bond, not the species. Dog, cat, horse, rabbit, bird — the shape of the missing is the same.

What happens to the email address?

It’s used to send the journey and nothing else. No advertising, and it’s never passed on. Every email carries a one-click unsubscribe. See our Privacy Policy.

This is companionship, not therapy

These emails are written with care, but they are not counseling, treatment, or medical advice, and they are not a substitute for professional support. If grief is affecting your health, your work, or your safety, please speak to a doctor or a licensed grief counselor. In the United States, the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is available around the clock by calling or texting 988. Several veterinary schools also run free pet loss support lines.
