That's little coinjoe in the middle with one of his older brothers and mother. Both of them have passed away.
This morning I sit here typing this a little numb in the feels. You see last night I prepared my Last Will & Testament. The funny thing is I have prepared a Will before many times when I was younger and in the military. However, I never gave it much thought. Back then I was young and invincible and could kick ass no matter what the world threw at me.
Oh, how things have changed. Now I am much older and faced with health challenges. There is also the maturity and realization that we all die eventually. My big guerilla ass will be no exception, no matter how stubborn I am, death will have its way eventually.
It was weird to work on my own Will and talk through what would happen upon my death, but I worked through it. PLanning out who would get what and contingencies for certain scenerios.
Why I put this off for so long I think is because of the dark place my mind is always in. Avoiding it was a way to avoid more dark thought, or so was the way of my thinking.
The truth is, that it has been a relief. Not sure if I would feel this way if I hadn't been making the recent lifestyle adjustments, but, I think I would have. It is a laod off knowing my wife will be taken care of in my absence and my sons will as well if she is also gone.
Along with my Will, I also did a POA for financial and medical stuff. This will allow my wife, and in her adsence my oldest son, to make financial decisions if I am incapaciitated. It also list my medical wishes if I am incapacitated. This one was pretty easy for me and didn't require as much thought.
Appreciate @bozz for posting about this not long ago and putting it back on my radar.
Anyway, it is raining out again this morning so my outdoor walk is out. But I do have a walking pad and plan to use it later. No need to let the Grim Reaper in too soon.
Hope ya have a good week so far.
Thanks for reading,
Joe
