This is for all you single people out there who live alone. Do you ever think about that little place on your employment application that says "In case of emergency, please notify ..."?
When I lived with my ex-roommate, it was easy, I used him as an emergency contact. However, that contact information is woefully out of date considering that he is now states away in North Carolina.
I don't have any living relatives, well, at least none that would give a damn... so who do I put down? Who would be there if I became incapacitated and needed assistance doing the basic functions of living while I recovered from an accident, illiness, etc.?
I know I have friends, however, I would be loathe to ask anyone to do such a thing for me. I don't like feeling like I would be a burden, etc. Most of the time, I am perfectly content being single, however, it is times like these when I feel horribly, horribly alone in the world.
Ciao for now...
