A keep-close version. Read it here, or screenshot this page to have it on your phone — print and PDF copies will appear once final files are attached.

The small print
What can wait (almost everything)
e.g. Messages, plans, the tidy house — all of it

New, severe or significantly different symptoms may need appropriate medical assessment.
