This means ensuring that your last wishes are fulfilled so that friends and family will be honored in the way that you think best. Putting it off means that you may have less control over your end-of-life care and legacy \u2013 your loved ones may also be forced to make difficult decisions and manage your estate during this most difficult of times. Worse, they may be left financially unprepared and excluded from the estate process with no power to advocate for your wishes.<\/p>\n<p>Many people living with Parkinson\u2019s say that their families were relieved to know they had completed their Will and Powers of Attorney. It freed them to focus on their health and spend their energy on the things that matter most.<\/p>\n<p><img style=\"float: right;\" src=\"http:\/\/parkinsonpost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/hands_in_oval.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>Earl and Shirley Simard are a couple who have included a gift in their Wills to Parkinson Society Canada. \u201cBesides the tax benefits for the estate, our children will not have to make any decisions in this regard and we can direct how the funds are used,\u201d said Earl Simard whose wife, Shirley, was diagnosed with Parkinson\u2019s in 2009.<\/p>\n<p>Once your family is cared for, you may want to leave a charitable gift to Parkinson Society Canada in your Will. A bequest can reduce taxes on your estate and enrich the lives of people struggling with Parkinson\u2019s at the same time.
