    108- Living Overseas When an Family Member Dies in the US

    108- Living Overseas When an Family Member Dies in the US

    This isn't an easy one.  This is challenging situation to face and there are some extra considerations (beyond the emotional loss) while we live overseas and our family member lives in the US. The services and paperwork all needs to be completed or organized away from our "home base."  

    This isn't an "advice" episode but a personal account of facing this situation- to give you a heads up and some things to think about BEFORE you are facing this hurdle yourself.  

    Also check out EPISODE #86--Aging Parents, we worry about our elderly parents living on their own as we live so far away.

     

    Please reach out to us at The Big Purple Blob- we are all helpers who want to put our expertise to good use in making life a little smoother for our community out there.  If you're looking for someone to talk to, an accountability plan, for a path towards a better life---please reach out.  We are here to help.
