These are things people don't want to talk about, but as you see, it's very important to plan ahead. When I became disabled I left my job with no notice and I was proud of the fact that I only ever got a couple of phone calls....someone was able to jump in and pick up right where I left off. Of course it's a hit to the ego to realize you are so easily replaced! But our company was big on everything being accessable. We had a young woman in our marketing department who was killed in a car accident while working. After she died everyone had to make sure their client information was up to date. It's unfortunate when a tragedy has to happen to get people motivated.
Thanks for the reminder, it is important!
