[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP. We are separated. Does it make sense to go ahead and get divorced? Could that save me financially? That was actually my plan until his most recent hospitalization and then I felt guilty divorcing somebody who is dying. [/quote] There is nothing morally wrong with legally divorcing someone who is dying. Divorcing doesn't mean abandoning. You can still care for your partner during illness and, if necessary, hospice. There are legal consequences like powr of attorney and hospital visitation rights, and fiancial/tax/debt consequences [b].You need legal advice.[/b] [/quote] +100. OP, I am sorry you are going through this. Please get legal advice now. Get your financial life in order and make a plan. A lawyer to discuss finances and how to protect yourself is by far the best idea. Divorce may be needed, but make sure you stay beneficiary on all his accounts.[/quote]
