Get an estate lawyer ASAP and settle your estate documents while you still have the mental capacity to do so. A relative of mine was incapacitated a full three years before they passed away of the disease.
- joshuaheard 6y agoThat's the first thing I would do if I had the disease. You will need a will, a power of attorney, and a trust if you have any major assets.
- akeck 6y ago(Note: IANAL) Especially with the strict time limits before you go into assisted living/nursing home. If you do estate docs/structure too late, you can lose the estate to Medicare/Medicaid. Also, some states have "Filial responsibility laws" which are another wrinkle.
