Work through the decision
List the information a trusted person would need to locate instructions, then note which recovery details must remain protected. Seek qualified legal help for an actual estate plan.
Write down what you know, what remains unknown, and what evidence would change the plan. Use hypothetical figures or a blank template if you are sharing the exercise with someone else.
