[quote=Anonymous]Your husband needs to have a sit down and approach finances and estate planning from a point of what are your wishes if x, y, or z happens. Through that he will gain a better understanding of their finances and health status. I would also suggest he offer to help pay monthly bills from their accounts and get his name on those before something happens. Even if they don’t agree yet you have laid out a plan for them to discuss. Also make sure he has secondary medical power of attorney in case both become incapacitated at the same time. He can also look into hiring a part time nurse or minimum a driver. Again throw concrete ideas out that you have the ability to execute and if and when they agree you show up and do it. They might not be ready to relinquish any control yet but there are a few things that need to be discussed now if he has poa. The rest will come with time and you have to trust that they know what’s best for each other.[/quote]
