Leann's story
After a cancer diagnosis, Leann struggles to collect and organize all the digital memories, physical keepsakes, and important messages she wants to pass on to her children. Here, we show Leann scanning an object (engagement ring) and recording a video message for her son to receive at a timely moment when he is ready to propose to his future partner.
