Easter 2012 - death.

Well, that was a cheering title wasn't it ?

I am 40, and as I get older other people seem to disappear off the mortal coil (die) and we're left to deal with the consequences in whatever form.

This is not a blog post about those that have passed, but is way more personal and those that haven't.

The way I live my life, is about planning for us, for the future, with the understanding, that I will be the person left, and therefore the person picking up the pieces. However, with that, I have ensured it's all documented "just in case", but the reality in my thinking is that I am going to be the responsible one.

But, what happens if I'm the one who gets struck down with a brain tumour, runover by a bus .. whatever?

I've set myself up in the knowledge that when DH dies, I will be lonely, but I will manage. But, how do I ensure DH is AOK if I trip off this mortal coil ?  How do I ensure that DD has the opportunities I have planned for her ? How do I ... how do I ... when I am no longer in control, cos I'm just not here ... ?
