RE: So overwhelmed may b MT
hi People, this sounds like it hurts but it doesn't sound like failure to us at all. getting away from FOO is a huge and incredibly difficult achievement that many NEVER manage with all the best intentions in the world. you function. you have a credible life. the fact that you don't have people you can call on for end-of-life issues doesn't make you any different from huge numbers of people who consider themselves successful. these issues are hard for many people. that's why they have presentations on them and specialists to give advice. for us, we know what we want done if we get to a stage where we can't make decisions or are dead and we don't much care who is the responsible person for this b/c presumably we'll be too out of it to care by then. we'd just pick any random professional we respect (maybe a church leader, med person, etc) and a younger back-up and then forget about it. doesn't really matter if we're not close to that person as we won't be having conversations at that stage. that's how we view it anyway. it's not a failure of you, it's a failure of modern society.
