I say that I know on my deathbed that my last thought will be "have I done enough to ensure that he will be taken care of." Helps me focus on doing the things now to ensure we are all in the right positions for each of us, and for him when we aren't here to help him through the day..... Clarity: aren’t we all after it.

Instead, he asked, "Will you be able to manage?" And, as you well know, that's the real question. We reply that, we hope that, whatever comes, we'll manage.
