The very reason I wrote an interrogative book title is because it isn’t my position to tell you what to do but to ask you to think about some things. The other reason, my ducks don’t always line up either and just when I think they do, something changes. Life isn’t static, it’s fluid, it’s a growing process and we are never too old to learn. So, what is “Are Your Ducks in a Row?” about? The contents of the guidebook follow the initialism DUCKS ROW. D introduces important decisions everyone needs to consider. U addresses useful documents that everyone needs to pull together and organize. C teaches about various care settings that people may consider as they age or may encounter at the recommendation of health professionals. K speaks to the blessings and challenges that sometimes come with kids and kin. S leads readers through the importance of everyone’s individual story. R helps readers realize what they can do to best prepare for emergency responses. O encourages the organization and protection of online information. W asks readers to make plans to live and age confidently, leave well and consider what may come after we expire. We plan for so many things; college, careers, weddings, births, retirements, vacations…. but we seldom plan for practical matters of aging that will likely impact the majority of us. Shouldn’t we at least educate ourselves so we can navigate inevitable situations as best we can? Visit www.ducksinarowguide.com to find out more.
