You also must get Power of attorney and living wills. Also make certain all bank accounts, CDs, 401ks, insurance policies at work etc. have a proper beneficiary. Keep small bequests like jewerly out of the will unless you expect a challenge or they will have to be appraised and tax paid on them. Have her make a list of those type of bequests and give it to you.
Really folks, anyone of us could get sick or run over by a truck anytime. Don't laugh, I almost was. So we all should have these documents now, not wait until we get a dire diagnosis.
Take care, Eileen
