Klappentext
If you died today, would your family know how to settle your estate? If you were told today that you have cancer and you have a month to live, would your family know what your final wishes are? If you suddenly lose all your financial memory, due to Alzheimer's, would your family know what to do? Do you have a parent or loved one whose health is declining? Are you a senior that needs help in estate planning or is thinking about moving into a facility? Or, are you a senior planning to stay at home but expect to need help in the future? Dying the Right Way is a caregiving story for seniors, families, and caregivers, taking one on a journey from the beginning of caregiving through the death experience and settling of the estate.
