Beyond The Farewell guide, revisions

All about caring
1

I originally posted about the Beyond The Farewell guide in August 2023 (see here) - intended as a guide to the practical matters that need to be dealt with in the many months or even years that precede and follow end-of-life. I hope it has been helpful.

After taking a break from it for a while, I have recently made some revisions, updates, suggestions and added a little visual enhancement. I also realised, and tried to emphasise, that the guide applies to ourselves or anyone at any age or stage of life and not just to those for whom we may be a carer.

If you notice any corrections needed, additions or have any suggestions then your feedback is welcome - I still can not help feeling I may have missed something :slightly_smiling_face:

For some sections I asked various large language models (LLMs) to proof read them for me - very useful, though one could forever make changes. My philosophy with LLMs is to use them as a tool to assist me, not to do things for me. Related to them, in the ‘Emerging technologies’ note, I like the idea of creating a ‘digital me’ for people to interact with in the future.

I hope the guide is again helpful and provides ‘food for thought’.

Another section ‘Cognitive Bias’ has been added to the guide, with some help and input from the thread What Cognitive Biases do you have?.

I could probably improve the wording of the section and I can already see a typo, but I thought it would be more helpful to include the section now and improve the wording later.

As before, I hope guide will be helpful.
