caijing and i are discussing wills and advance medical directives. she says she can draw one of each up for me and is giving me advice on how to do it. she says not to be lor soh about it or i'll give her lots of extra work. not that i have anything to give away - i don't own any thing - but i do want my books to go to the right people. also, as singapore doctors are very unwilling to be responsible for amds, i don't know if one drawn up in australia will be hold up legally if it came to it, but i expect caijing will find out. it isn't morbidity. it's just much more sensible to make these practical decisions while you're compos mentis. you go through life acquiring things, and you should, or at least i do, think about how they should be disposed if i were no longer here. it would be unbearable to be in a room full of things when the person is dead, wouldn't it? i would prefer to make the decisions now, so that no one will be forced to make them.
