Synopsis

This is the first comprehensive estate-planning guide dedicated solely to the issues faced by for those living with a chronic disease or disability. This book is for everyone who needs advice planning for the disbursement of his or her estate, whether that be a modest sum or more considerable.Estate planning is the process of preparing for the management and disposition of a person's assets and resources when they are deceased or no longer able to manage their own affairs. While most people think estate planning is just worrying about assets or minimizing income and estate taxes, it is much more than that. It is really a tool used to accomplish your goals during your life and beyond.And it is even more important for people living with chronic disease or disability to take advantage of this planning tool than for people without extenuating circumstances. For instance, it is critical to have sorted out a preference whether to receive long-term care at home rather than in a nursing home in the event that you become more disabled. It is more important for one who has a chronic illness to name a power of attorney as opposed to leaving it up to the court system or to doctors who you have never met.
