I have a plan in place. Some of you have kids that you believe or know will help you in your failing years. Some may have kids, who might hate your ass, so you already know they won’t be around to help you. Then, there’s some of us who don’t have kids, that we know of - LOL...So, we have to plan for our eventual demise and what it may entail to exit this place. What’s your strategy for when the time comes you can no longer manage, simple, day to day tasks ? 🦫 Curiosity Killed the Cat & The Prairie Dog “Molon Labe”

That was my FIL, who died last week.

Everything I did, I did with the intention of leaving him and my daughter a legacy. At the same time, I'm taking care of a father with end-stage renal failure and watching him and my mother's health going down hill. All of this has led to the conclusion that 1) nothing is ever as concrete as you think it is when planning for the future and 2) I don't want to leave someone else a burden to manage my health. I bought some land with the notion that I had a son that could/would help me. Now, it's just me to rely on getting it done. With that said, I don't want to leave it to my daughter to make tough decisions. She's already been through enough with recent events. I hope to pre-plan to make it easier on her and maybe with some input from her. Last but not least, I see Dad battling dialysis 3x/week now. It's a scheit life being chained to a chair 4 hrs/day, 3 days/week. It's also impacted mom's quality of life as they can't travel unless major planning which Dad was never great doing. I hate it for my parents and hope I don't go that route. Last edited by devnull; 09/08/21.

Something along the lines of this ^^^ If I'm lucky, the bones won't be found until they've been picked clean by the critters. If I'm really lucky they won't be found until after they've been picked clean and the rodents and other critters have gnawed them for the minerals, and the bigger critters have broken them for the marrow.
