Solo Aging

A hospital form asks for an emergency contact and you sit there with the pen up. This is the household of one: who may act for you, decided in writing while it's still your call. Who runs the care when there's no somebody to phone the agency at eight in the morning. And how you insure yourself between your last day of work and Medicare, with no spouse's plan behind you.
