Just have to brag on them a bit. But first you have to listen to my story 
Mrs Scrapr has Stage 4 cancer. 2nd Dx and inoperable. One tumor is on her windpipe and impacting her breathing. We had some hope that her last chance drug would work. It's an immunotherapy drug (Keytruda) that recently was approved as first line treatment. A good friend's life was saved as Keytruda was in trials. Mrs Scrapr entered hospice on Monday after 2 very bad days of difficult breathing. We have death w/Dignity law here in Oregon & have been through the protocol. She was ready to use it after her 2 bad days
At the same time we are working on getting trusts set up for each of us. Lawyers came to the house for signing Monday. I had contacted VG last Friday that this was going down. Flagship rep replied back & said he would take care of it. I'm pretty wrecked so i made a couple of mistakes docusigning the VG Trust docs. I think I filled out each Trust form 3 times. Then Mrs Scrapr's accounts were titled slightly incorrect. She spells her first name unusually. Long time ago I must have set it up wrong. The rep got that changed quickly (1 day). I'm sure if this was not a rush job that might take a week.
The time zones were a factor as we are West Coast time. He was calling me at 6:00 pm PST. Which is past my bedtime EST. Anyway he got the trust approved in 1 day. They say 5-7 days in the message. Then tonight we were on the phone and have trades to fund the Trusts at close of business on Friday.
I am just awed by his persistance in staying on this and working through the layers of bureaucracy at VG. He was dogged. Mrs Scrapr was impressed with the security. She had to jump on the line a couple times.
Thank you for listening to this. And thanks to VG
