(Pages 72-99)
The first part I read was really thoughtful when they decided to split their mother's possessions evenly or donating what they didn't need/want. Most people bicker and argue over the littlest things, and after losing a loved one, it probably would cause more anxiety and anguish within the family. Money and possessions can cause so many issues for no reason. It's better to either split it evenly, or if you can't agree to that, just donate it to those who need it most. The next part discusses his mother and her driving issues. A lot of older people don't want to admit that they aren't capable enough to drive until it's too late. But, they have to realize it's better for them and those around them so that they don't cause anyone harm. Although it might be hard to travel, he had the great idea to hire someone to drive her. Living in a senior community could also help with this issue, as he stated. The decisions they all made for the mother so far were all great and I could see myself taking a lot of advice from this when it comes to be my time. Making the right decisions, whether it be financial or emotional, could make a huge difference to that person.
