WELL almost - how about 5 dollars!
When you are caregiving one of things that comes to mind is, 'Am I doing what they would wish?' BUT... Do your loved ones know what your wishes would be?
I wanted to talk today about a almost FREE living will form that I found. We all can relate to the resources that go into caring for our loved one with dementia and/or Alzheimer. There are too many people that think they can NOT afford making a living will, and I hope I found an option for you today that will change your mind about writing a living will.
My father wrote me a letter before he passed about some of things he wanted, and things that scared him about dying. He had all the legal living will paperwork in order, because he had a terminal illness. He talked about personal things outside the legal document issues as well. The one thing he pushed both verbally and in writing was that towards the end he wanted no pain, and wanted to be sleeping. I made sure his final wishes were done.
My brother David and I were talking about my mother wanting her hair looking good, because that makes her feel better.
Do you have your wishes known like my father did? I didn't want him to die, but I felt like I gave him a gift when his time came. His living will, and his letter made me feel at rest in some important ways when he did die. I want to give my family the same option!
