MJ Charles’ original book “Surviving the Business of Dying, a Guide to Why Final Papers Matter” speaks to her own experience, dealing with her late spouse’s estate matters without any formal documents. The book reminds us of the details and priorities that need to be assembled and completed before we leave this earth.
While her story reads like a letter to an old friend, MJ Charles makes the point that this guide is not intended to be a sad story. Rather, its purpose is a call-to-action for any adult who has yet to assemble their final wishes. The book begins that day in the ER, when questions were asked for which she had few answers. Mid-book, the reader is reminded that they need not experience what they just read, if they have a will. It’s that simple.
The question becomes “Where do I start?” This is where “Surviving the Business of Dying” The Companion Workbook comes in.
Carol Pilkington –
“Mary Jane’s master class on Last Wishes was thorough and informative. The workbook is a wonderful guide to help prepare at least administratively for the inevitable death of a loved one and oneself. I know from experience how important it is to have the proper documents ready. Take Mary Jane’s class and get her Last Wishes Workbook as soon as possible; you won’t regret it.”
