I'm glad you're feeling better now and can share this. Life is fleeting and sometimes we tend to take our good health for granted. I don't know the psychology behind it but I've noticed men find it difficult to go to hospital. Perhaps it is the feeling of vulnerability that comes from being there.
It's a very difficult conversation to have with a loved one and Funny enough, I'm in a similar situation as all my investments are in crypto. My wife knows a thing or two about hive and stuff but she doesn't know anything else. Her knowledge of Hive means she knows how keys work, so she has all my keys. She's holding it as back up but in reality, it's also an "in case if emergency" thing. I also try to teach her about how stuff works, so she can access it if I'm incapable of doing so. It's a scary thought but it's the only way.
I have been there a bit, but last night I had a pretty bad feeling and didn't want to go there a lone. My wife thought I was going to die too. Not a great night.
I use LastPass for my passwords and if something happens to me, my brother will be able to manage most of what needs to be done through there. It is hard to find someone to trust though, especially when there is quite a significant amount to think about. I wish my wife would spend time learning about this.
