TL;DR Summary

A 73-year-old woman writes to an advice columnist expressing her concern about her husband's decision to leave their $1.8 million home to a 10-year-old relative. The woman feels slighted and questions whether this is normal. She has made provisions for her husband in her own estate, but worries about being bypassed. The columnist advises her to accept her husband's plans and suggests that they both make arrangements for each other's properties upon their deaths. There is no "normal" resolution in this situation, but treating each other equally in death would be the fairest approach.
