[quote=Anonymous]My DH is genetically prone to relatively early dementia. We are working on a plan for financial divorce while he is still competent with me retaining medical POA. He has been very explicit in saying that he wants to go to a low-cost place once he does not know what is going on- in his family people lose their memory and language very quickly but their bodies are healthy for decades. For a while he was pretty hellbent on a scheme to make sure he could do assisted suicide before it was really bad, but I think the timing of onset vs. decline makes that really tough to pull off legally.[/quote]
