18December guides you through everything a terminal diagnosis brings, from that first conversation with a specialist to winding up an estate. Whether you are facing it yourself or walking beside someone who is, every step is mapped out.
Free to start. No payment required.
Our founder's partner Mark was given a terminal diagnosis. Together, they built a map of everything that needed to happen, on post-it notes, at the kitchen table. The date they'll never forget is 18 December. This is that map, for everyone.
Tell us who you are here for, and we'll take you straight to the guidance that fits where you are.

The medication diary holds the plan the doctor wrote, including a dose that steps up or down over time, and shows what is due today alongside what has already been given. Tell it what the box held and it estimates roughly when a script will run out. There are email reminders when a dose is due, and a read-only view you can share with family or a nurse. Here is one filled with a sample.
The medications shown are a sample to show how the diary works. They are not real and are not medical advice.
Three phases: before, during, and after. Work through each at your own pace. Earlier is always better, but it's never too late to start.
Medical specialists, palliative care teams, estate solicitors and more, wherever you are in Australia. Sourced live from Google.
