Bill,
My heart went out to you when I read your post. I guess I am coming from a similar experience. My father was dx with lung cancer and within two weeks he passed away. It was a huge shock. He was 43, my mom was 41 and I was 17. My mom was not able to make certain decisions so I did at such a tender age. I look back on some of those decisions now and I am not sure I made the right choices. But you do the best you can.
I do not want to leave my husband with all those decisions. I just want him to focus on his and the children's healing and well being. I guess that is where I am coming from. I have decided to write it all down in a journal so that if need be, he will know what to do.
Tonya
