Hi @angg66
i have claimed on my life insurance due to metastatic b.c. When I first mentioned it to my husband - he went quiet and didn’t say much for a few days. It was the same about when I did the advanced health directive & EPOA. But I spoke to him about it & stated we are better off claiming now rather than later - the house will be paid off, we can live & work because we want to not because we have to and it’s not going to make you (hubby) any happier after I’m gone. May as well be happy & live well while we can. And yes we are all going to die eventually just that we have been given the heads up.
Its very personal and men are peculiar creatures and don’t like to think about this stuff.
Kind regards
Anne
