Could This Be You?

Helen recently lost her 87-year-old mother to cancer, and while Helen’s two other siblings have offered to help her handle their mother’s affairs, one lives far away and the other has medical issues of his own that make it difficult for him to assist. Though in her mid-60s herself, Helen is still working full-time and finding it physically difficult to gather her mother’s belongings and do anything with them, since she doesn’t have much free time to do so. She also has found the whole experience emotionally draining since she was so close with her mother and watched her go through such a painful long-term illness for so long.

You may find yourself facing similar challenges and wondering:

• Am I too physically and emotionally overloaded to coordinate the details of dispersing an estate?
• What do I do with all of these family possessions and how do I get them there?
• How can I handle all of the responsibilities when I live out-of-town or don’t have the time or resources to manage everything alone or in person?

• Arranging for cleaning and waste removal, scheduling home repairs, and preparing the home for sale
