joy of Ageing Esoterically

Advanced CARE Directives – A Slow BLOOMING FLOWER

29/4/2017

In my experience I've noticed that people with terminal illnesses and older people can be quite upset by the legal responsibilities added on top of their situation. It's a load of new things to learn when we are already feeling challenged by dealing with our health, work, home, financial and family issues. It's an 'in-our-face' reminder that death is inevitable, and that it's coming our way in the not too distant future.
