QUESTION: My life partner/roommate of 15 yrs. does everything for me Everything! I couldnt walk for 6 mos (both legs crushed at work). She did it all; paperwork for all agencies, all communications with attorney, doctors, PT, meds, drove, cooked, cleaned, washed, shopped, bathed, etc. Now, I've been diagnosed with Stage IV Colorectal Cancer (not related). If I die b4 I settle and if I name her in my will as my sole beneficiary can she continue with the suit?
