[quote=Anonymous]I am so sorry for you and your spouse, OP. A very short book that may help - Chasing Daylight. One man's approach to having a few months to live. As early as possible, spending as little time as possible, get your estate documents reviewed and updated if needed. Get health care and financial powers of attorney. If spouse is working, call HR and see if any group term life insurance policies through work are "portable" and can be converted to a individual independent policy. You don't want this to lapse if your spouse needs to leave work. My good friend passed at age 30 from aggressive cancer. He left behind a young widow and small child. My DH took him to see his favorite hockey team play while he was still feeling good. When his energy was lower, some of the best memories we have were just quiet evenings playing boardgames with him and his wife. We miss him.[/quote]
