Finances

6/27/12


One of the things Larry is keeping busy with is making sure that his family is provided for and everything is in order. I of course don't even want to talk about it. Yet it is so important to him, that I do. 


Went to Loyola today to speak and meet the Benefits Advisor. She will be my contact later. As most have said, she could not believe that Larry was that sick. 


I will have to be very frugal but I will be ok financially. Probably will not be able to afford the house. The scariest part is health insurance. Loyola has a generous Cobra plan for 3 years. After that, I will not be able to get health insurance that I can afford and does not have any waivers. Hoping that the Health Care Plan in Washington gets passed by the Supreme Court. 


We had discussed recently of dropping some of his life insurance because of the cost. I thought we could drop it but Larry felt we should hang on to it. I actually always told him to insure me the most because of all my health problems. He did not listen to me and I will be forever grateful to him. 


How unfair is it that he has worked since he was 16, has this good retirement package and now will not get to use any of it? I cannot even put words to how much this hurts me.
