This comes in response to news that I’ve heard of recently. Goes to show if you value your posthumous requests, organize them wisely.
The concept we generally call “dying wishes” are a staple in how we think of society. Just look to the ancient play Antigone for that. However, things don’t always go as planned, especially in the wrong hands. What’s the biggest difference you’ve seen between someone’s “dying wishes” and what actually ended up happening?
My mom was supposed to get my Grandpa’s house after he died. But my grandpa made the mistake of giving his new wife my mom‘s stepmom right to life in the house. She didn’t take care of the house, trying to kick somebody out who has right life is almost impossible. When my mom‘s stepmom finally died,the house was basically worthless. My mom basically got nothing out of the deal.
Never ever give somebody right to life to any house. It will kick you in the teeth.
