COPD, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, is a progressive disease that makes it hard to breathe. The disease gets worse over time. COPD can cause coughing that produces large amounts of mucus (a slimy substance), wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and other symptoms.

Cigarette smoking is the leading cause of COPD. Most people who have COPD smoke or used to smoke. Long-term exposure to other lung irritants, such as air pollution, chemical fumes, or dust, also may contribute to COPD.

Estate-planning is crucial for those living with a chronic disease or disability: individuals must express their preferences whether to receive long-term care at home rather than in a nursing home in the event that they become more disabled, and it is more important for one who has a chronic illness to name a power of attorney. Estate Planning for People with a COPD covers all of those topics plus:

How to write your will
How to determine how much life insurance your family needs
How to figure out whether you need a living trust
Learn about powers of attorney
When to work with a lawyer, if you need to

Estate Planning for Someone with COPD covers all eventualities that a person with this disease may counter when planning their estate. The book is not just for people with money but even for people who have one main asset such as a house and need to know how to deal with it in relation to chronic illness.
