Saw the lawyer today. After 2 delays, we've finally got all the work done to process the 'certificate of appointment' I need completed before I have access to everything, like the few bank accounts that were in Laura's name only. I'm told it'll take about 3 weeks for the government to do their end. Only then does the lawyer want to talk about the trust fund. Everyone has been very patient so far, I hope u can wait a bit longer. Then I'll submit...what? Some sort of proof, or good evidence, at least, that I've gotten it locked down in Harrison's name. I'll send it to Cheffo, I guess, as he's led the charge in getting money together for the trust fund. Between my UI, H's disability, the baby bonus, & the money saved (outside of that sent for the trust fund, of course), we should b able to last the 3 weeks, & then I can dip into other savings Laura had sole access to before (don't want to, those were for retirement & H', but we'll do what we have to). I've already paid most of the big 1 time xpenses (the funeral, cremation, lawyers fees r pending, however, & the certificate itself has to be paid for, but I can handle it). I'd like to thing that by we'll have ACSD helping us out soon as well; I finally got the application form. In other news, I've started homeschooling, as planned, but very slowly. Started with reading over a week ago, & added math yesterday. As before, H' balks at any attempt to get him to do school work, but actually gets pretty good results. As usual, everyone, thanks for your support, advise, and sympathy, & I'll keep u posted |

Keep moving it forward one day at a time, my friend. We're all pulling for you. |

Hi everyone. Thot I'd give a quick, but rather pointless, update. Still waiting for the 'Certificate of Appointment' to arrive. After that, its back to the lawyer to lock down Harrison's trust fund. Still no word about the autopsy. A friend of mine sent me a link to a rare disorder that MIGHT explain what happened. Its a long shot, but its the best I've seen so far: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hereditary_angioedema |

We're still here. I'm ready to get things moving as soon as you have the trust sorted out. Until then keep moving one step at a time. :) |

I am just now reading this thread, and I must admit I skipped over parts of some of the posts. I am very sorry for your loss. I cannot pretend to know what you are going through, although, like many on here, I can relate. I lost my little brother Stevie last year. He was "special" in that he was retarded (I can just now say that without a little denial), and he was "crippled" since birth. By crippled I mean he could never walk on his own, he could not even sit up straight on his own until he was 6 or 7. My mom was a single mom and raised all of us including Stevie until she passed 13 years ago. The doctors tried to get Momma to "give up" on Stevie and have him committed, but she refused to do it. One doctor even told her when he was a baby that he would not live past 12 years. She didnt buy into that. Stevie was 50 when he passed last year. He was a very bright person, and his attitude was one that I wish I could hang onto for as long as he did. He loved music and going to his "work shop" every day. He also loved going to church. He was a very big inspiration in my life. I miss Stevie and my Mom. But I can assure you that with time each day gets a little better, but you will never forget your loved ones. And even though you have a long road ahead of you with your son, trust me the love you will experience will be well worth it and rest assured that your wife is there with you, in your hearts and minds. Hang in there man, and I will be more than happy to donate some money to your son's trust fund, just let us know when the time (and method) is right. |
