Widow & Widower

It's rare for a married couple to see their health decline in tandem, and just as rare for a widowed spouse to be fully prepared for the change. Practical and emotional support from family members and others can help. 

Advance preparation can help widows and widowers handle many challenges:

  • Adjusting to financial changes
  • Resolving legal issues
  • Avoiding exploitation
  • Getting support as they grieve
