@DrPepper12 Yeah, it's gonna happen to the best of us... I notice a lot of thoughts about all of this seem to come from men who are 50ish. I need to pay attention to that bc my husband is 47 and I'd like to have some understanding about it if he goes through those feelings soon.
@Caroline91 the realization you (likely) have more years behind than ahead is a sobering thought. Make sure your wills up to date and protect your assets by putting it in trusts. Especially real estate.
@DrPepper12 All of the practical stuff has been taken care of since the first month we were married, 10 years ago. I appreciate my husband so much for dong that for me and our little ones. Since I was only 22, I really wasn't in a space to want to think about it. But, after the pandemic, I have gotten a lot more serious about thinking about it all. Since practicalities are already addressed, I'm thinking more about psycho emotional aspects and about wanting to talk with my husband about those things. It's not a comfortable conversation, I'm sure...

Aging is scarier than death tbh
@DrPepper12 Why is that do you think?
@Caroline91 I guess the recent health setbacks are weighing on me and this mortal coil will eventually break down.
