If you are in this sandwich generation (age 45 -55 helping
parents and with children at home), then planning now is the best advice to
give. Some action steps to take at this time will be sorting out legal,
financial, residential, mental and physical healthcare elements prior to a
crisis. Engage any siblings you may have in the planning and figure out how to
begin involving them now so that one of you is not bearing all future legal
and, potentially, financial burdens alone.
