How I set up my ‘death book’

Here’s how my death book is set up.

I keep everything in a large three-ring binder, each section in a clear plastic sleeve.

The binder lives inside a fireproof document case I can grab quickly in an emergency. A thumb drive with backups sits inside. So do spare keys, my passport, and anything someone would need immediate access to.

It isn’t elegant. It’s functional.

While our family calls it the “death book,” the truth is you will probably need this first if you are injured or disabled.

We have a slightly twisted sense of humor.
