Important Public Service Announcement
Mar. 3rd, 2026 11:20 amDo you have various paperwork in place for things like health care proxy and a will and stuff like that? If not, you might want to do something about all that. Like, you really should.
PARTICULARLY if you would rather than decisions be made by your friends and/or family of choice rather than the folks who are listed as family in government records. (I was going to say 'birth family' but I'm not sure what a good term is that would include adopted and blended families.)
I know there are free/cheap resources out there for doing this stuff for folks with fairly uncomplicated situations, but I haven't used any of them so I have no specific recommendations.
