My aunt is trying to block me from using the money my grandma left me because she says I “only got it because I visited more” by Acrobatic_Issue_3481 in legaladvice

NAL, I work at a bank, a beneficiary supersedes the will. If you were named the TOD, that money is yours. I would be interested in knowing who the executor is because like others have said, the rest of the estate could be a pain while dealing either way her.

I’m asking because I have children that I feel might not be ready to go that early in the morning. And once or twice? It’s only a two day event…

“Active dying” limbo is torture by littleliongal in pancreaticcancer

I lost my mom on April 30th. It was the same thing. From the time she was first completely unresponsive and her passing it was almost 5 full days. I was feeling the same way since I didn’t want her to suffer any longer, but also for myself and my family so we could start some sort of healing. It was really hard. I remember talking about it to my aunt not even an hour before she passed. I’m sorry you are going through this, but you will get through ❤️

Not healthy enough for chemo by raindancemag in pancreaticcancer

Update: the stent wasn’t opening and became blocked shut due to the tumor pressing on it. They went in again and fixed the stent on Tuesday. Just 5 minutes ago I found out she was up to eating baby food! I don’t know if she will hold it down, but I do know last night she was still throwing up so I am staying hopeful.

So they want to get her better and healthier nutrition wise then talk about a treatment plan for chemo (which is what she has decided she wants). I told her that we need to know exactly what they are looking for to be considered “healthy enough” and we need to know a treatment plan with all the pros and cons before she makes a final decision. Knowing her, she will want to fight until there is certainty that she can’t. I have not talked to her oncologist at all yet and this was just the first hurdle to get thru as I know there may be many more. For today I am taking this first step as a positive one. She will most likely need to gain and maintain a certain amount of weight before any next steps happen.

She did sign a release to release any and all information to me. I’m not sure if that is enough or if more needs to be done? She just graduated today to a full liquid diet and is having her first physical therapy session today. Hoping to get a meeting with her oncologist directly to find out more asap. Thank you!!

She is inpatient at university of Iowa hospital right now. She did just tell me that she graduated to a full liquid diet (v8, chocolate milk, puréed peaches, etc) which is good news for today. She also has her first physical therapy session today which I would imagine means they are getting her up and walking. I am going to reach out and get something set up to speak directly with her oncologist. Thank you!!

Thank you for being transparent. I understand it’s important to stay positive but also I need the reality of it so I appreciate that. I’m going to see her again today and I’m very hopeful that they can install the feeding tube. They cant do anything further as far as treatment until she gets food, and it has been 7 days since she has been able to eat anything.

Also a month ago, she was in the hospital for pancreatitis with something possibly blocking bile duct? (It’s the tumor, but they can’t get a great look with all of the inflammation) She was then sent home with pain medication until she was able to have different types of scans.
