Yeah for sure it's crucial to have these things especially as we get in marriages and things like that.
Thankfully we did a living will many years ago - as well as critical care decisions such as if we want to be put on life support or not. It’s really painful to hear of your friend experience but sadly I would say it’s not uncommon for that to happen.. what a shame!
What the activity for me really was making sure I provided instructions of what the things mean since my wife doesn’t have a real interest in anything digital assets. Going through them, explaining and all that wasn’t easy but it’s important to have her know in case something happens! I certainly slept a little easier knowing that I provided her a good overview of things, with the proper safe guards of course so that it’s not something someone can just pick up lol.
