This is not a very easy thing to write about, and forgive me if this is not organized well, and forgive the typos, and spelling mistakes.....just feeling sad.

A friend of mind in Korea is now on life support. He is brain dead. He has a wife and a baby. Important papers cant be found. His wife can't get into his bank account. She does not know the password to his email accounts.

Just a word to all people out t here. Please give some one you trust an extra bank card with your pin number. give some one access to your email, or give them a list of people to call or write to if anything happens to u.

When you are in a hospital here, your friends and family come and take care of u. this is not like back home. Give some one the keys to your apartment. tell some one where your important papers are. Make a will.
take care of these things, cause when you are gone, your loved ones will suffer.

OK, signing off. Just please take care of things.

Thank you for sharing that. Our thoughts are with them at this time. Is it just me, or does it seem strange that his wife does't know the bank account PIN numbers?! Don't mean to be insensitive, but that seems to be a given for many/most couples. The phone number and info is a good heads up that we all need to head. Take care.
