I have this already for people in positions where I need to be replaced, for example when I die Poast will remain online indefinitely, it will have to be scaled back which I have written guides and programs for somebody like yockey, who is my successor to do which make it super simple. Crunchbits owner has already agreed to keep Poast online in the event something happens to me until yock decides if he can continue funding with what I will leave to him, or what. The owner has told me he won't ever turn it off but I am not going to burden him with the operation cost, even if it's cut back to 1/3 like my plan will be.
I have a will. up until you reminded me to update it it gave most of what I have on this earth to my ex. I am still very upset with her but I have forgiven her in my heart but I do not believe she deserves anything from my estate, so it is being distributed to people in my life I believe deserve it, two of them probably definitely do not expect it but they stand to receive a lot.
I am ready for it because my dad was taken from me quickly, too. He had lung cancer for 5 years nearly. He was given a clear diagnosis, he beat it with treatment. a couple weeks later he had problems eating, felt bloated and then severe stomach pains. They admitted him to the hospital for 2 nights, sent him home with a gigantic jar of pain meds and a prognosis of 7-10 days. he died within 5. They had literally just delivered the bed to my parents house the day before and hooked him up to a drip. He died within minutes of me leaving to make dinner for myself. He waited until I wasn't around to let go because he was trying to hold on and be strong for me.
I am familiar with death and what it feels like to lose somebody who means everything to you, and I am familiar what it feels like to lose somebody who you might not have known well but in passing always brightened your day and I can tell you both hurt in their own unique ways.
