  1. Well this may sound horrible....The plan is to make sure nothing is left at final accounting. I have been extremely successful. My husband was a great man but wasn't so good with finances. We kept everything separate. The investments and life insurance were in my name...however he never did a will so Its in probate what neither of us realized was in Florida biological children are entitled to 50% no matter what. Im sure there are many that think im the evil stepmother. However so much has been done for ( Alex) and he stole much from me and both my kids. The court doesn't care. He gets 1/2 after everything is paid. The items in probate don't add up to a fortune. Everything I have gotten is going into a separate account that I control and hopefully some day Mikes grands will have something from him. 
    I talk to the Estate attorney regularly just to eat up money. I have not been reimbursed for all the items I paid out of pocket...funeral , security, private nurses yet so that will eat up a bunch. If i do it any other way and Alex gets a chunk of money he would spend it on drugs and I don't want his overdose on my shoulders. I also found many notes in my husbands phone and desk that clearly let me know not to give Alex anymore money.

  2. THANK You ALL....I believe Im still in shock. I have Chronic Lyme disease just as I got into remission...COVID hit and Mike just didn't feel right. I honestly worked hard at protecting us from COVID only to have him loose feeling in his legs July 4th...surgery found fungus compressing his spinal column. I trusted the doctors. We were told rehab 6 months anti fungals iv 6 months oral meds and he would be fine.So much bad care ...when I finally got him to hospital in Gainesville Labor day weekend it was too late. They told me what the other hospital did that killed him. I immediately hired a VIP Limo/Ambulance and took him home.....I only hope he knew I did everything no cost was spared. His drug addict son who we helped over and over just wants money.I havnt seen him since the funeral.although his lawyer contacted mine 2 months ago,...I offered many opportunities solutions and havnt heard a word....we only guess he discovered that attorney costs money and he's not entitled to anything.....( although I have discretely set up trust funds for both grandkids) His son owes me over 40k in legal fees and so much more...hasn't even asked where his father's ashes are. Im just beside myself.

  3. Good Morning....How wonderful to discover friends who understand . Im completely perplexed and sad. I lost my first husband Walter in 2007 ...yes I grieved extremely sad father to both my children. I loved him so much. I met Mike just 8 months....We did everything together..Mike passed September 8 th from a fungus that shouldn't have killed him. There's already talks with attorneys how the hospital and doctors really messed up. Its been confirmed by their own admittance. That will be an ongoing saga...I know not to compare however Mikes death has hit me like nothing I ever imagined....Why did I think that yes I would mourn but I would  function . Makes me question did I not love my first husband enough? Im so confused and honestly my body and mind are not working. My family is saying or not saying much as I think they 2 believed that its not so bad. We know that both are in heaven .Im of a strong Christian faith....I just haven't run into many stories or help in losing 2 husbands in less than 20 years. I just turned 56 ....I feel as though Ive loved greatly and now grieving so hard...I just don't know how I will recover or better yet accept that I was so so blessed..Im going through the crazy roller coaster you all understand. Im in NY with family returning to my home in Florida next week where I must seek counseling..I started going into severe depression when in our home...I know im intentionally shutting everyone out. I know what danger im putting myself in yet I continue to go through pictures and videos just to hear his voice...i think ill just peek then its 8 hours later and im still in yesterday's clothes ...paralyzed to do nothing but cry. I hope this is not too much information for a newbie but I see how you all support each other. If you read this far ..Thank you for taking the time.
