7. I drew up papers after my father died in 1997

Its called a Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care.

I am his and he is mine.

His secondary is deceased. He has an 82 year old sister living in Ireland. Of the 10 kids in his family, they are the only two left.

As for me, I have no one really but a tRUMP brother that does not wish me well. I stay away from him.

He has no idea what is going on with me.

I have a friend that very recently has agreed to be my executor. I had no one and was ready to name the Catholic Church.

I still do not have a will. Its been difficult finding anyone to help but very recently (in fact today I have an interview with them) I've found a local place who's mission is to KEEP PEOPLE IN THEIR HOMES.

The house I live in was obtained via Rural Housing Service, USDA and it is located in rural northern California near the coast. It was a run down dump of a house that no one cared to live in. I bought it 20 years ago for $80K. Its worth a lot more now but compared to other houses around me, it is still nothing great. It is very small but it works for us and the three cats. I'm lucky to have a place to live as I was on Section 8 briefly living in an even bigger dump! UGH!

I am glad to read that they cannot displace me because I am 100% disabled and have been of this status since 1996 due to the MS.

Thank you and everyone else reading this.
