Through careful planning and legal documents, you can be the decision-maker as to who gets your property when you pass away; you can be the decision-maker as to the extent and nature of palliative care should you need such; and you can decide who will be the decision-maker as to your finances should you become incapacitated. Careful planning with the assistance and timely advice of an attorney who can ensure that the right legal documents are in place in advance of sudden illness or death will allow you to have the kind of control that we all rightly prefer.
