Everything was on course, on schedule and under control. You all knew that sometime within the next few years the family would likely need to arrange some form of professional or institutional care for Mom.

Then at 1:15AM, during the wee hours last night, you got “the call.” Dad suddenly passed away. The ambulance took Mom to the hospital for now.

Your family was caught by surprise. Suddenly your family is engulfed by a furious sequence of events that seem quite beyond your control. Hopefully you’re reading this on the plane or in the car as you rush to your Mom or Dad. Read on. We have much to do...
