End of Life Doulas are experts in managing advance care planning conversations. EOL Doula Pam Carter of International Doula Life Movement knows how to get those discussions going. As an EOL Doula, Pam works with people with serious illness and their families to determine their end of life wishes. Choices are often made by weighing benefit vs burden. That means considering questions like “What will I get out of this? Is this what I want to do?”, “Is this something that contributes to my quality of life?”, or “If I spend my time like this, what will it take from me?”, and “What will I have to give up for this (energy, time with family, peace, comfort, respiratory comfort, even money)?” Pam believes advance care planning should consider all aspects of how we live. Further treatment for an existing illness should definitely be included. Other things to talk about for your ACP is where you want to be cared for towards the end of your life, and who you'd like to take care of you. Here are some other things that could be included in your Advance Care Plan: Having visits from a spiritual counselor (chaplain) Including visitors or having privacy Returning to the hospital for accidents or injuries Treatment for infections How much information you want about your health status Who will be your healthcare decision maker (Medical Power of Attorney/Healthcare Proxy) Funeral/memorial service planning Tradition funeral care, embalming, green burial, or human composting Using medications that will cause drowsiness or avoiding sedation Body/organ donation (whole body donation, forensic anthropology donation) Back-up plan if body donation is disqualified Rituals or ceremonies That's only the beginning of the many things that can be part of an advance care plan. Those ACP conversations should happen early and often. It's hard to imagine all the “what ifs”, but it's valuable to talk about different scenarios that seem possible for your life or situation. Having an end of life or death doula to facilitate those ACP discussions can help! Want to know more about doulas, or connect with others who are doing death doula work?

Texas law permits surrogates to act and make medical decisions on behalf of a patient under certain conditions even if the patient has not signed a Medical Power of Attorney. This podcast describes the conditions and who can act as a surrogate.

Lorraine Valente shares the horrifying story of her mother, Claire, being tortured and killed by Covid hospital protocols. Claire was healthy, worked full time and was described as a social butterfly. She went to the ER and what happened next is shocking! Lorraine was kept from seeing her mother and every time she called she was told her mother was sleeping. Actually, she was sedated and given many toxic medications. Lorraine's advice to everyone watching this is to please get an advocate and have the Advanced Medical Directive and Medical Power of Attorney ready in the event you ever have to go to the hospital or need medical advice. Go to graithcare.com to get an advocate or ask any questions about advocacy. Go to thedrardisshow.com to find the Advanced Medical Directive and the Power of Attorney forms.

We were on the screen today for a conversation with Dr. James VanKirk, Director of Palliative Care for Valley Health, based at Winchester Medical Center about advance medical directives. This is part of an ongoing community health partnership with Valley Health where I talk every month to physicians, administrators, nurses, etc. from Valley Health about a wide range of topics regarding healthcare. Dr. VanKirk explained what palliative care is: a specialized, interdisciplinary approach to improving comfort and quality of life at any stage of serious illness by addressing symptoms, communications, and next steps. We talked about National Healthcare Decision Day that happens on April 16 each year. He told us that it's actually observed for the entire week but advance medical directives can be done at any time of year. Dr. VanKirk talked about the different types of advance medical directives, how to start the conversation with loved ones, how to decide who you'd like to be "your person" and the steps you should take to ensure your wishes are on file somewhere like your local hospital. An advance directive is a form you can complete so that you can be in charge of your health care if you become unable to make healthcare decisions for yourself because of injury or illness. “It always seems too early until it's too late.” An Advance Directive includes two important parts: Choosing someone to be your voice when you cannot speak for yourself. This person is commonly called a health care agent, or may also be known as a Health Care Proxy, Substitute Decision-Maker, or Medical Power of Attorney. Communicating the kind of medical treatment you want or don't want. This is called your Living Will.

Living Will. DNR. Advance Directive. POLST.  You know these forms are important. But are they the same? Do you need all of them? What are they for? And when would you need them?   Forms are location specific. Do an online search for "[where you live] and [name of form]" or ask your lawyer to get the right version for you.   Recap of summary:  Everyone over the age of 18 should specify their wishes and designate a health care proxy, ideally with an Advance Directive or Living Will and Medical Power of Attorney If you're close to the end of life or frail and the risk of complications from resuscitation would not be worth it, that's when you want a Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) order If you're close to the end of life and don't want to artificially extend your life and you want to be sure that your wishes are honored (and it's available in your area), get a Physician Orders for Life Sustaining Treatment (POLST)

What will life be like when the COVID-19 crisis passes? What aspects will stay with us, and what will disappear? We've been thrust into a moment of rapid change, but most of us don't like change. It makes us feel uncomfortable. We like a level of certainty about our future, health, and jobs, as well about the worlds of finance and property that most of us are interested in. But there are lessons in history that can provide us with valuable insights. In today's episode, we'll talk about some of the things that never change in a world that never stops changing. Successful investors and businesspeople need to be prepared for change but also understand the things that don't change. So, by the end of today's show, you'll come out with some ideas about how to get some more certainty in these uncertain times. I'm also going to share a mindset moment from one of my mentors and have a chat with Ken Raiss about estate planning. Some things that never change in a world that never stops changing The things that never change are the most important things to pay attention to. However, change gets the most attention because it's exciting, it's surprising, it's something that the media can comment on. You see…predicting the future is hard. Very few can do it. On the other hand, understanding what stays the same is very useful. Particularly in challenging times like we're currently experiencing. Of course, I still have no idea what's going to happen in the future, but I'm a little less surprised whatever does happen if I have a handful of assumptions that I can put my faith into to guide me moving forward. So, let's look at some things that never change in a world that never stops changing. More people wake up every morning wanting to solve problems than wake up looking to cause harm. I'm an optimist and have faith in society, but I recognise that those with a negative message get more airplay in the media and incite negative sentiment in our community. Fact is… in life you get whatever you expect to get. The only question is, what do you want? If we were not optimistic, none of us would bother setting up a business, employing people, taking risks, or investing in property. If we were totally realistic about how often people fail, how often things go wrong, how most property investors never build a substantial property portfolio, we would never even bother getting started. Your outside world is a reflection of what's happening inside your mind. So, feed it with positive, optimistic thoughts. The world breaks about once a decade. This is an interesting expression I learned from columnist Morgan Housel of the Collaborative Fund. But it's true and there seem to be very few exceptions to this. There is a major disruption every decade or so. It could be an economic, political, military, or social issue. The bad news is never as bad as it sounds How many times does the end of the world as we know it need to arrive before we realise that it's not the end of the world as we know it? Of course, those with a long-term perspective, who have lived through a number of economic shocks and property cycles, tend not to get as shocked when major events like we're now experiencing hit us. However, those who have not experienced these types of shocks tend to worry more and imagine the worst because they have no perspective to rely on. 4. This too shall pass Nothing too good or too bad stays that way forever. I've found these types of major upheavals are not as scary if you have the underlying belief that they'll keep happening but that in the long term they don't prevent the long-term growth of our economy and our property markets. History doesn't really repeat itself. We've all heard it before - “History repeats itself!” It's an inane statement that seems so wise on the surface but crumbles under serious scrutiny. Morgan Housel wisely said: “History is mostly the study of unprecedented events, which, ironically, we then use as a map for what could happen in the future.” Estate Planning with Ken Raiss Estate planning is something a lot of people don't think about until it's too late. But you want to be able to pass on your wealth in an efficient manner, and estate planning is crucial to your overall wealth plan. Some critical estate planning documents: A will – your will should be set up so that instead of passing on your assets to your beneficiaries directly, they're passed on in a testamentary trust. This has tax benefits and helps to ensure that wealth remains in the family. Non-Estate Assets – You may need either a Binding Death Nomination or Superannuation Will in order to distribute superannuation funds. Enduring Power of Attorney – this document pass decision making authority onto another person in the event that you're physically or mentally incapacitated. These documents can give authority that is as broad or as specific and narrow as necessary. Medical Power of Attorney – This document helps you to finalize your wishes in relation to things like organ donation. Personal Details – This is a non-legal document that can help you pass on things like account numbers, passwords, where to find policies and valuable items, information necessary for paying bills, subscription information, and so on.

It's your GPS.” – Michael Yardney “In summary, prepare for the inevitable by having somebody on your side preparing a number of documents, including a will.” – Michael Yardney PLEASE LEAVE US A REVIEW Reviews are hugely important to me because they help new people discover this podcast.

Catherine is an attorney and author of the bestseller, “Estate Planning for the Sandwich Generation: How to Help Your Parents and Protect Your Kids”.  "Planning is bringing the future into the present so that you can do something about it now." according to Alan Lakein.  This quote is appropriate for all the great information Catherine shares in this episode:Family members who do not reside in the same location can still play a vital role on the caregiving team.‘Sandwich Generation' refers to people generally in their thirties and forties who have young children they are still supporting, and they also have aging parents.Start with getting your own house in order by obtaining a Financial Power of Attorney and a Medical Power of Attorney.Due to HIPPA, you also need Power of Attorney documents, both medical and financial, for children 18 and older.Documenting your end-of-life decisions is a gift because you take the burden off your loved ones.Once your house is in order, you can then focus on what your parents need to have in place.Asking for your parent's advice on what you should do or for their opinion on situations affecting other friends and relatives is can open the door for further discussions.Five necessary conversations to have with your aging parent(s):FinancialMedicalLiving Arrangements When AgingEnd of LifeLegacyDo not have just one conversation, but instead make it ongoing.Focus on getting the information that is important to your parent(s) without judging, negotiating, or influencing the situation.Create a family binder of information to have everything in one place. Include legal documents, financial information, bank accounts, funeral arrangements, list of passwords, insurance policies, pension information, etc.

Do you need estate documents?I invited my friend and Estate Planning Expert, Will Beyers to shed some light on that answer.Will does a great job summarizing what each document does and provides some context on when and why they will be needed.The documents discussed in this episode are: Wills, Financial Power of Attorney, Medical Power of Attorney, and TrustsWe also dove into the importance of naming a caregiver if you have children, as well as, why most people drag their feet on setting up their estate documents. will@beyerslaw.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/williambeyersiii/https://www.beyerslaw.com/

The Vixens this week are joined by friend, colleague, and ally, Dr. Janci Lindsay, PhD. She's a molecular biologist, pulmonary toxicologist, and made her “internet break” when she gave a public comment to the CDC about her numerous concerns about the ongoing jab rollouts we're all witnessing. Considering the attempted censorship, canceling, and discrediting of any “dissenters”, it's nice to have an expert on our side, speaking truth to the medical powers that be.”

Rayna Neises, ACC, host, and Karen Weaver, PCC, co-host, reflect on last week's interview with Victoria Lowell. Victoria shared information regarding finances and their impact during the caregiving season. Additional thoughts:When retiring early to care for a loved one, you need to consider lost wages.  Also, the lost opportunity to contribute to social security and personal retirement plans.Finding a side hustle can help with income, but also can provide stress relief helping you feel like you are adding value and that you have something of your own.Understand the difference between health insurance, long-term care insurance, and Medicare/Medicaid.Power of Attorney is only good while the person is living.  Once they pass, then the will dictates the handling of the estate.Medical Power of Attorney and Financial Power of Attorney can be separate documents or can be one comprehensive document.It is important to have cash available and accessible at the time of the person's passing as it can take time to liquidate funds and obtain a copy of the death certificate.Check out Podcast #32 with Kira Reginaldo for additional tips.   

A medical power of attorney is a legal agreement between you (the principal) and one or more other individuals (the representative), giving them the authority to make medical decisions in your absence or if you are incapacitated.

Rayna Neises, ACC, host, and Karen Weaver, PCC, co-host, reflect on last week's interview with Catherine Hodder, Esq. who shared her estate planning expertise. Additional insights discussed:By first completing your estate planning, you can frame the conversation by sharing your experience vs. just telling your parents what to do.It is important to know that the person selected to serve as Medical Power of Attorney understands what you want, what is important to you, and that you can trust them to follow through with your wishes.You have to keep revising your documents to make sure that they are as up-to-date as possible.  Asking questions is powerful and asking them in an ongoing conversation over time is critical.A reality check can help because the finances may not always match up with the desires.Having conversations ahead of time can help avoid the fights and items can go to people who will appreciate and value them.Taking the time to create the binder of information can be the greatest gift that you give.

To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1085/29 Imagine a court freezing your assets and then combing through every detail of your finances for months or longer. That’s exactly what happens if you die without a will.The probate court will have to decide how your assets will be distributed.If there are minor children involved, the court will have to decide who will take care of them as well and those decisions may not line up with your intentions. Fortunately, it’s easy to create a will and give your loved ones some comfort in your passing, but that’s just one part of Setting Your Estate in Order. Steve Moore and Rob West have a checklist of documents you’ll need to get the job done. A will for both you and your spouse. A Financial Power of Attorney naming a trusted individual to make financial decisions for you should you become incapacitated. A Medical Power of Attorney (sometimes called a Health-Care Proxy) giving someone the authority to make decisions about your health care if you aren’t able to make them yourself. Depending on your state, financial and medical powers of attorney may be combined into one document. An Advance Directive specifying your wishes about being put on life-support equipment in the event of a terminal illness. That document may eliminate family arguments. Be sure to name beneficiaries for your retirement accounts and insurance policies. Doing so supersedes anything you’ve laid out in your will. Assets in those accounts go directly to the named beneficiaries without going through probate. While putting all of this together may seem daunting, Rob suggests that hiring an Estate Attorney may be a good investment of both time and money.They’re very familiar with the process in your state and will often reduce the cost per document if you do them all at once.If you can’t find an Estate Attorney, go to MoneyWise.org and click on Find a CKA. Next, Rob and Steve answer some questions from our listeners: I’m self-employed so I have no guaranteed pension.I have a retirement account with about $850k in it.What’s the right mix of investments so that I’m not at risk of losing it? I have my own business and I hear you talk about the importance of using social media to connect with customers.I’ve tried to do this for example to let customers know that our hours are changing but it doesn’t seem to be working.What should I be doing differently? My husband bought a term life policy 20 years ago.It’s about to expire.When it expires, will we lose all that money we’ve paid into it?Should we keep paying for it at the much higher rate once it expires? I own three weeks at a timeshare.Unfortunately, the maintenance fees keep going up and I’m now on a fixed income.I’ve been to meetings with organizations that say they can help me get rid of my timeshare, but the costs for that are astronomical.What can I do?(Rob says that there aren’t many good options, but your best bets are [1] try to get rid or it yourself, [2] consider renting it to cover the maintenance fees in years when you can’t use it, or [3] to contact the management company to see about giving it back.He recommends the Timeshare Users Group website as a good resource:tug2.net.) We have a variable income and find it hard to stick to a budget.Any advice on how to make that work? At the end the program, Steve mentions the book,Money and Marriage God’s Wayby Howard Dayton.It’s available in the STORE on our website.If you have a question you’d like to ask on the program, call (800) 525-7000 or emailQuestions@MoneyWise.org.Want to connect with a MoneyWise Coach, purchase books, or download the free MoneyWise app?Just visit our website atMoneyWise.org Like and Follow us on Facebook atMoneyWise Mediafor videos and the very latest discussion!Remember that it’s your prayerful and financial support that keeps MoneyWise on the air.

This week, Rayna Neises, your host, talks with Catherine Hodder Esq. Catherine is an attorney and author of the bestseller, “Estate Planning for the Sandwich Generation: How to Help Your Parents and Protect Your Kids”.  She began her law practice in banking, but after helping care for her dad and seeing how estate planning helped her family, she switched her focus when she went back into practice. She now lives in California where she writes articles to help members of the “Sandwich Generation”. Catherine shares the following advice:  Family members who do not reside in the same location can still play a vital role on the caregiving team.‘Sandwich Generation' refers to people generally in their thirties and forties who have young children they are still supporting, and they also have aging parents.Start with getting your own house in order by obtaining a Financial Power of Attorney and a Medical Power of Attorney.Due to HIPPA, you also need Power of Attorney documents, both medical and financial, for children 18 and older.Documenting your end-of-life decisions is a gift because you take the burden off your loved ones.Once your house is in order, you can then focus on what your parents need to have in place.Asking for your parent's advice on what you should do or for their opinion on situations affecting other friends and relatives is can open the door for further discussions.Five necessary conversations to have with your aging parent(s):FinancialMedicalLiving Arrangements When AgingEnd of LifeLegacyDo not have just one conversation, but instead make it ongoing.Focus on getting the information that is important to your parent(s) without judging, negotiating, or influencing the situation.Create a family binder of information to have everything in one place.

In this episode Joanne Williams, LCSW discusses what she has learned, that most American DON’T know about who is paying for living situations or medical care before the end of life.  A must listen for family. Summary of today Podcast: You are not dying yet or even close to deaths door, but you can’t walk well nor fix your own meals and fall often. Or who cares for your mother if she falls and breaks a hip and her spouse can’t care for her. What can you do and what are your choices? What can family do to help now? What are the choices for care? What does Medicare pay for and doesn’t pay for? Does Medical Insurance or Medicare pay for an assisted living facility?   How much do An Assisted Living Facility cost? Can you pay for home care at $25 per hour? Does your Medical Power of Attorney make decisions for me before my death? Question for today is? What are the choices I have for Assisted living cost? My 90 yr. old neighbor has the fire department come at least 1-2 times per month to pick her up off the floor.  But she refuses to leave her home.  Her son visits almost daily.  She has a caregiver daily, but the fire department and ambulances keep coming.  What are the son’s choices? This is a very typical scenario I heard, as I worked as a medial social worker for the largest medical group in Palm Springs, CA.  This agency has worked on preventing Hospitalization, if more social services were given in the home  I believe it has worked, since I started their program 10 years ago it is still functioning today.  70 % of people turning 65 can expect to use some form of Long-term care during their live according to AARP. I have seen every kind of home situation possible, with 2 spouses struggle to keep the other one home, while this may be killing the other spouse.  The families with children living 1000s of miles away and not caring or no able to offer any support to their parents. Even for the children that can offer support by financial assistance, it is trying. This Podcast discusses what Medicare does pay for: What insurance pays for and what it doesn’t.  Joanne Shares information about Medicare as the Insurance when you become 65 yo.bb 10 things that Medicare does pay for Medicare advantage and “regular Medicare insurance”. Now is open enrollment, just for the next few weeks, you can’t change insurance unless you move. 1. Does pay for certain Number of days or weeks in a Nursing home. They pay only for “skilled care” or you start paying at the Average cost of $225 to a semiprivate room. 2. Hospice end of life care in your home 3. Palliative care, for pain relief when there are no cures 4. Respite care to give the caregiver a break. 5.Transportation to doctor appts. Speak to a License agent for the commercial agency that can offer any of the Medicare advantage programs. 6.Medical doctor visits 7.Hospital visits for a certain number of days 8. May pay for Home health aid 9. Home visits if you need a skilled nurse to come to change a bandage. 10.Physical therapy What Medicare Doesn’t pay for: Assisted Living facility that average $4000 per month or $48K per year. Doesn’t pay for unlimited stay at a rehab or Nursing home to live. Doesn’t pay for caregivers in your home. They average cost of 50K per year for in home care. Look at the needs for care when you look at insurance coverage you need. Advanced directive is the most important choice you can make ahead of time to make your wishes known. See Podcast # 24 On Having the End of Life Discussion with Family. Alzheimer’s is increasing and is a terminal decrease of cognitive functions in that 80 % of the caregiver spouse succumbs to an illness or dies before the patient with dementia. Emotional support animals can really help with agitation from Alzheimer’s. These are the normal scenarios that happened over and over again.  My job was to advise offer resources and choices ahead of the inevitable need for more care. Children can help if they give $$ per month for a care giver, or day care, or a camera in the home to know what is really going on in the home. Put alarms at Home Depot that are magnets, if the front door is opened or the bedroom door opens. There are things you can do to help.  Get ahead of the progression.

What will life be like when the COVID-19 crisis passes? What aspects will stay with us, and what will disappear? We've been thrust into a moment of rapid change, but most of us don't like change. It makes us feel uncomfortable. We like a level of certainty about our future, health, and jobs, as well about the worlds of finance and property that most of us are interested in. But there are lessons in history that can provide us with valuable insights. In today's episode, we'll talk about some of the things that never change in a world that never stops changing. Successful investors and businesspeople need to be prepared for change but also understand the things that don't change. So, by the end of today's show, you'll come out with some ideas about how to get some more certainty in these uncertain times. I'm also going to share a mindset moment from one of my mentors and have a chat with Ken Raiss about estate planning. Some things that never change in a world that never stops changing The things that never change are the most important things to pay attention to. However, change gets the most attention because it's exciting, it's surprising, it's something that the media can comment on. You see…predicting the future is hard. Very few can do it. On the other hand, understanding what stays the same is very useful. Particularly in challenging times like we're currently experiencing. Of course, I still have no idea what's going to happen in the future, but I'm a little less surprised whatever does happen if I have a handful of assumptions that I can put my faith into to guide me moving forward. So, let's look at some things that never change in a world that never stops changing. More people wake up every morning wanting to solve problems than wake up looking to cause harm. I'm an optimist and have faith in society, but I recognize that those with a negative message get more airplay in the media and incite negative sentiment in our community. Fact is… in life you get whatever you expect to get. The only question is, what do you want? If we were not optimistic, none of us would bother setting up a business, employing people, taking risks, or investing in property. If we were totally realistic about how often people fail, how often things go wrong, how most property investors never build a substantial property portfolio, we would never even bother getting started. Your outside world is a reflection of what's happening inside your mind. So, feed it with positive, optimistic thoughts. The world breaks about once a decade. This is an interesting expression I learned from columnist Morgan Housel of the Collaborative Fund. But it's true and there seem to be very few exceptions to this. There is a major disruption every decade or so. It could be an economic, political, military, or social issue. The bad news is never as bad as it sounds How many times does the end of the world as we know it need to arrive before we realise that it's not the end of the world as we know it? Of course, those with a long-term perspective, who have lived through a number of economic shocks and property cycles, tend not to get as shocked when major events like we're now experiencing hit us. However, those who have not experienced these types of shocks tend to worry more and imagine the worst because they have no perspective to rely on. This too shall pass Nothing too good or too bad stays that way forever. I've found these types of major upheavals are not as scary if you have the underlying belief that they'll keep happening but that in the long term they don't prevent the long-term growth of our economy and our property markets. History doesn't really repeat itself. We've all heard it before - “History repeats itself!” It's an inane statement that seems so wise on the surface but crumbles under serious scrutiny. Morgan Housel wisely said: “History is mostly the study of unprecedented events, which, ironically, we then use as a map for what could happen in the future.” Estate Planning with Ken Raiss Estate planning is something a lot of people don't think about until it's too late. But you want to be able to pass on your wealth in an efficient manner, and estate planning is crucial to your overall wealth plan. Some critical estate planning documents: A will – your will should be set up so that instead of passing on your assets to your beneficiaries directly, they're passed on in a testamentary trust. This has tax benefits and helps to ensure that wealth remains in the family. Non-Estate Assets – You may need either a Binding Death Nomination or Superannuation Will in order to distribute superannuation funds. Enduring Power of Attorney – this document pass decision making authority onto another person in the event that you're physically or mentally incapacitated. These documents can give authority that is as broad or as specific and narrow as necessary. Medical Power of Attorney – This document helps you to finalize your wishes in relation to things like organ donation. Personal Details – This is a non-legal document that can help you pass on things like account numbers, passwords, where to find policies and valuable items, information necessary for paying bills, subscription information, and so on.

It's your GPS.” – Michael Yardney “In summary, prepare for the inevitable by having somebody on your side preparing a number of documents, including a will.” – Michael Yardney PLEASE LEAVE US A REVIEW Reviews are hugely important to me because they help new people discover this podcast.

Doctors are seen as having a high degree of knowledge and expertise about diagnosing and treating ailments. The Hippocratic Oath requires them to provide fair and equal healthcare to all. Researcher Sobin George investigates how caste impacts doctor-patient interactions in Meenkara, a village in Karnataka, with heightened Dalit consciousness. He shares with us how India's caste-based social order and unequal power relations between doctors and patients result in unchecked practices of upper- and middle-caste health care practitioners providing subpar care to Dalit patients. The insights he will share are based on an article he published in Economic and Political Weekly on 5 October 2019 titled “Reconciliations of Caste and Medical Power in Rural Public Health Services.” Audio courtesy: Night Owl by Broke For Free [CC BY 3.0]

In Colossians 1:24, Paul said "Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and in my physical body for the sake of his body, the church. I fill up what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ." This week, Hans and Robby listen to Tom as he discusses his personal experience with a health scare and needing an around-the-clock caregiver.   Tom said he had been experiencing bad headaches and unusual sleep patterns for a few days and wrote it off as work-related stress. His wife eventually forced him to go to ER, knowing something was wrong. The doctors, unable to find anything, sent him home. Only a few days later, Tom became unresponsive and experienced weakness in his extremities. He woke up in the hospital unable to use his legs. He was only 26-years-old.   Tom's doctors didn't know what caused his severe illness. Today, they know Tom experienced a disruption in his brain and spinal cord from a rare autoimmune disorder that attacks the central nervous system. At the time, however, his recovery was extremely difficult, especially with an 8-month-old infant in the house.   Tom said he was sent home in a wheelchair and his wife became his full-time caregiver. All of the sudden, she was solely responsible for everything from taking Tom to physical therapy to waking up in the middle of the night for their baby to mowing the grass. At one point, his wife got sick because she was stretched so thin and continued to persevere through it to care for her family.   Hans talks about how Cardinal Advisors had lost another employee right when Tom got sick during their busiest months of the year. Even so, Hans and other employees offered their help to Tom's family and supported him through his recovery.   Tom talks about how life is fragile and ultimately in God's control and hands. Even though his situation was bad, Tom says he was lucky. He had a loving wife who could advocate for him and coworkers who were patient and helpful. His wife was young, energetic, able-bodied, and could care for him effectively.   Most people don't want to discuss long term care. They assume their family will care for them or fear that nursing homes are the only solution or simply say they'll never be incapacitated. Tom wants to emphasize that he too thought he wouldn't need care until one day he couldn't walk.   It's important to know how extremely difficult it is to help grown family members when they're immobilized. Robby talks about how helping his dad into his wheelchair was next to impossible and left them both feeling hopeless. Tom added that he felt embarrassed when he was sick and couldn't take a shower without assistance. The point is, if loved ones don't have the proper training, it's difficult to impossible to help family members with limited mobility.    Up next, Robby talks about how putting simple legal plans in place like Power of Attorney, Medical Power of Attorney, a will, and a HIPAA agreement can help dramatically in difficult health situations.    Long term care planning takes care of a difficult decision-making process that can cause disagreements that divide families. Hans talks about how it's hard on the caregivers to see a loved one who can't get out of bed, function, or make decisions on their own anymore. Having the flexibility, permissions, and money to hire professionals relieves this burden and allows families to focus their energy on offering loving support.   Hans says long term care does not mean going to a nursing home. Long term care includes home health care and a fund to help your children care for you. Hans and Robby both say that they themselves will not move to a nursing home unless it's absolutely necessary and have planned according to those wishes. Taking the time to plan now while you're still healthy and sound of mind is worthwhile and can prevent a future bad situation from being made worse.

Successful property investors need to own the types of properties that are going to be in continuous strong demand in the future. Demand is driven by demographics. That means all real estate investors should become students of demographics, so in today's episode, I want to discuss the major demographic milestones that Australia has recently reached. I'll also share a mindset moment, with a lesson in the kind of people you should avoid. After that, we'll chat with Ken Raiss about the five essential documents you need for Estate Planning. You really should know about these demographic milestones At the end of August 2018, Melbourne's population was projected to reach five million people. Victoria accounts for over a third of Australia's population growth. Melbourne had the largest annual population increase of any city in Australia's history. Victoria is getting more migrants than anywhere else. All this population growth is a positive sign for the Victoria property market's long-term prospects. Melbourne is projected to hit 6 million people by 2025, the same year Sydney is projected to hit a similar population. There's an imbalance between the types of housing that's being built with what key buying groups want and can afford to buy properties. There are three types of home buyers: first-time homebuyers, upgraders, and downsizers - remember home buyers make up 70% of the market.) Research suggests that demand from young renters and upgraders is going to be declining. First home buyers and downsizers will drive Australia's housing market over the next decade. First home buyers are getting older. First home owners are looking for room to grow and the ability to add value. Affordability is also a concern. Downsizers are aged between 60-74. About ¾ of downsizers are couples or live alone. Downsizers are looking for low-maintenance, convenience, access to the same amenities near where they've been living, but smaller projects. 5 Critical Estate Planning Documents A Will – And this should be linked to a Testamentary Trust which protects your assets and greatly reduces potential taxes. Non-Estate Distributions – Your Superannuation is not technically yours and can't be passed on in a regular will. You'll need a Binding Death Nomination or Superannuation Will to pass on control of those assets. Enduring Power of Attorney – If you become unable to handle your finances before death, an enduring power of attorney can authorize someone to act on your behalf. These documents can be very broad or very specific, depending on need. Medical Power of Attorney – Allows you to specify medical wishes and after-death wishes like organ donation. Personal Details – A list of things like passwords, bank account access information, and other personal details that your surviving spouse or relatives will need after you're gone.

Because they're going to help you grow to the next level.” –Michael Yardney “You can't expect to live a positive life if you surround yourself with negative people.” –Michael Yardney PLEASE LEAVE US A REVIEW Reviews are hugely important to me because they help new people discover this podcast.

Shahidha Bari is joined by cultural historian Ana Carden-Coyne, literary scholar Santanu Das, and Julia Neville, co-ordinator of the Exeter First World War Hospitals Project, to discuss the 1914-1918 War. Their research turns the War into a mosaic of feeling and experience, a sensory dislocation and cultural melting pot. Dr Ana Carden-Coyne is Director of the Centre for the Cultural History of War (CCHW) in the School of Arts, Histories and Cultures, University of Manchester, and author of The Politics of Wounds: Military Patients and Medical Power in the First World War, Santanu Das, Professor of English Literature, Kings College London. His book India, Empire and the First World War: Words, Objects, Images and Music Is out now Dr Julia Neville, is an Honorary Fellow in the History Department at Exeter University, and serves on the Council of the Devon History Society.

In this episode, Cayce Powell, MBA, JD, FCEP and Jason Meredith, MBA, JD, FCEP discuss: • What is a Medical Power of Attorney? How is it different than a Durable Power of Attorney? • Who should be named as the agent on a Medical Power of Attorney? • Why is it important for development officers to know about it?

On October 1, 2017 we published the first part of Helen's story about being a personal caregiver for a close friend.  Helen's friend had appointed Helen to be her Medical Power of Attorney without informing her of this fact.  Helen didn't realize she was the MPOA until her friend was in critical condition with sepsis in a hospital ICU.   In Part 2 of Helen's story she describes the turmoil of trying to make medical decisions for someone who had never communicated her end of life wishes.  Helen's story is not unusual.  There are many people who find it difficult to discuss their end of life wishes with family or friends, or even medical professionals.  It always seems unnecessary until it's too late.   April 16, 2018 is National Healthcare Decisions Day, and we encourage our listeners to take advantage of this day/week to discuss with their family and friends the wishes that they have for end of life care.  If you need help starting the conversation, visit our website at www.theheartofhospice.com for more resources, including the Five Wishes, Go Wish cards, and more.       Helen's Hospice Story, Part 2 

The estate planning process can seem a little daunting. Having gone through the process, I remember walking into my lawyer’s office and not having a clue what was going to happen— much less how much it would cost. In this episode, with my younger pre-estate planning self in mind, I interview Susie Meyers who is an estate planning attorney with Warner Norcross & Judd LLP. Susie gives real, practical and actionable advice on why you should have an estate plan, and what you can do to prepare to save yourself a few dollars in the process.   Topics discussed in this episode:   About Susie Meyers (2:11) What is estate planning? (4:15) Why do I need an estate plan? (??) What does the first meeting look like? How can I prepare? (14:00) How do I find an attorney? (19:00) Do I bring my spouse? (21:30) The process (~25:00) Role of the advisor (31:30) Resources (~35:55) At the very least: Have a Durable Power of Attorney (36:15) Bonus Questions (38:00)   At a Glance—The Estate Planning Process: Meet with your estate planning attorney. The initial meeting will take around 1½ hours. The attorney drafts your documents. You review your documents and request any final changes. You sign (all documents must be witnessed and some must be notarized). Done!   An Estate Planner’s Tips for Preparing for Your First Meeting: Ask your attorney what they need in advance of the meeting to make your time together efficient. In many cases, your attorney will send you a form in advance. Compile your financial information. Prepare a list of your assets and know how they are titled. If you are a business owner, collect your business agreements and plans. Collect your life insurance information (payout, type, etc) Think over who you would choose to make decisions on your behalf. Who should care for your children? Who should receive your assets? Who should make medical decisions in the event that you are unable?   Notable and Quotable:   “Everyone has an estate plan whether you draft it or not,” —Susie Meyers #estateplanning101 #successfulgenerations   “Estate planning is not just for the elderly or wealthy. It’s important for everyone,” —Susie Meyers #estateplanning101 #successfulgenerations   “Once a child turns 18, a parent no longer has the ability to make medical decisions for them or access their finances,” —Susie Meyers #estateplanning101 #successfulgenerations   “At the very least everyone should have a Durable Power of Attorney and a Patient Advocate Designation, also known as a Medical Power of Attorney,” —Susie Meyers #estateplanning101 #successfulgenerations   “A prenup covers property rights of a spouse in the event of divorce or death. You still need an estate plan to execute what you agree to in the prenup,”—Susie Meyers #estateplanning101 #successfulgenerations   “Estate planning is like building a house—lots change orders will add to the price,” —Susie Meyers #estateplanning101 #successfulgenerations   Resources mentioned in this episode:   Find Susie at Warner Norcross & Judd LLP The Book of Joy Silver Spoon Kids   Subscribe Now!

As hospice professionals, we often feel like we know what it's like for the family who has a loved one on hospice.  Until we've actually had that experience we may not really understand what they're going through.   In today's episode, Helen shares a personal story of taking care of a family friend who had named her as her Medical Power of Attorney.  Helen shares some of the lessons she learned from this experience, and how it has changed her perspective on caring for the families of hospice patients.   When this episode was recorded Helen's friend was still alive, but still on hospice.  However, during Hurricane Harvey, her friend began to decline, and then died on September 2.   For more information about hospice, caregiving, and self care, visit our website at www.theheartofhospice.com.  Be sure to follow us on Facebook and Twitter also, to be one of the first to receive updates when our blog and podcasts are published.  

This week Helen & Jerry consider the purpose of the Medical Power of Attorney (MPOA).  The purpose of the MPOA is to designate someone to make your healthcare decisions for you in the event that you're incapacitated, and unable to make those decisions yourself. For more information about the MPOA, visit NHDD.org or CaringInfo.org.  Both of these websites have information regarding how to select your healthcare agent.   Visit our website at www.theheartofhospice.com for more resources regarding end of life decisions.  

After Claudio Ranieri is sacked just nine months after winning the most unlikely of league titles we look at the cold hard analytics behind when a manager should be sacked. We are joined by Professor Adrian Bell author of the paper ‘The Performance of Football Managers: Skill or Luck?. We also take a look at the state of the modern game if emotion and sentiment are removed. The Medical Power of the Six Nation Many of the French players taking part in the Six Nations come from the city of Toulouse which likes modestly to call itself the capital of French rugby. Now the city's medical professionals have been backed by those players in an exciting project in the fight against cancer. We’re in town to find out more. The World's Fastest Blind Man on Two Wheels Ben Felten, who is blind, with help from his sighted guide (and former MOTO GP star) Kevin Magee will attempt to crack the world record for the fastest speed for a motorcycle ridden blindfolded. Mr. Mouse A couple of weeks ago prize money of over $60,000 (£50,000) was on offer to those taking part in the original and most infamous obstacle course race in the world "Tough Guy". However the 30th running of Tough Guy was its last as its creator, some might say evil genius Billy Wilson, known as Mr. Mouse has decided to retire. Before he did he took us on a tour of the course.
