Chapter Five: Dying And Death

Three months left to Aaron’s mother life she no longer had that light in her eye with the excitement she had to be filled with life. It’s almost as if she knew her days were coming to an end soon. She had fought trying to beat death and became a bitter woman as a result towards the end of her life. When the time came and she passed handling the estate wasn’t a problem for Aaron. His mother left all her possessions to his name but to be fair with his brothers he was equally fair and they all had their choice of what personal belonging they wanted in remembrance of their mother. When it came to the donation to the rest of her belongings Aaron shared the donation write off with his brothers and split the value of about $5,000 for what her belongings were worth. In chapter seven it discussed an interesting topic that I will fear as I get to that age one day and that is the driving privilege everyone will face one day. Aaron’s mother was not too convinced of the idea of turning in her keys to her son and losing that feeling of being independent. Until one day she got into small accident and it was enough to scare her in the fear of hurting another individual and accepted her dependency and if she ever needed anything her son or daughter in law or granddaughter would assist. Since she couldn’t manage with the reality of losing her independence to driving they hired a driver for her and paid $7 a day to take her around and take care of her necessities. She finally decided to make the move and relocate to Orlando, Florida for the remainder of her lifetime, she was pleased living in a senior citizen community in this city and was very loved by everyone in her community.
