Part II: The Grantor Gets Sick Sooner Than You Expect – Now What? 
What happens when the best laid plans get interrupted because the grantor falls ill during the lookback period?  This session will cover the options available when this happens:  waiting vs. getting funds out of the trust, collapsing the trust, paying out to lifetime beneficiaries, then returning the money, and other options.
