I never thought it would happen to me: My experience as a prominent elder care attorney who became a hospital patient to (almost) a long term care resident.
In this deeply personal story, Fredrick P. Niemann, Esq. takes his readers and viewers through his recent hospitalization which included intense rehabilitation for a spinal cord injury that left him partially paralyzed.
Having counseled clients for over 40 years, Mr. Niemann discusses his feelings and the experience of being a patient facing the prospect of being permanently and significantly disabled as a result of an injury he never saw coming.
An important reading for individuals who think that planning for the future is unnecessary particularly when good health and prosperity has been a feature of their life. The need for quality health and long term care insurance is emphasized with the touching part of Mr. Niemann’s story and how it reinforced his commitment and sensitivity to clients going through a crisis, particularly when confronted with a condition which may change their life forever.
