My MIL suffered a mild stroke last week. I'm going through the process of trying to prepare my wife for the stages of the grieving process(MIL post CABG,DM,now stroke/80 y/o) and I've realized that in order to help prepare everyone involved to cope with the stress later, I need to help them consider legal options.
My MIL has some family heirlooms, but there are virtualy no personal finances to consider or debt to reconcile. There are no directives, durable powers, or other measures to protect the dignity of her impending passing however. I have knowledge of those kinds of things existing but I don't know where to look exactly or what to look for.
My wife is always giving me a hard time about spending too much time on Allnurses(no such thing!) so let's show her what a great support system we are.
Links,advice,anecdotal reports,questions................no such thing as useless information to the truly ignorant:kiss
Thanks,
A loving husband and understanding nurse in training.
Good luck Peeps. Sorry I couldn't help. If anyone ever needs help on how to save/preserve things after a house fire or how to figure out what was in the house for insurance purposes - that's the disaster I can help with...
