Bill paying can wait for 9 days unless you take your computer. I used to do a notarized paper stating that my cousin could make medical decisions when I travelled.
Here are other options since I have cruised more than 30 times. Purchase internet and instruct to contact you through hangouts or Facebook messanger You can check with your cell service to see how much more international service would cost when you are off the ship
A few questions... 1. Is he going to stay in your home while you are gone? A) If so will someone be there with him to help him? a. If the person that is going to stay with him is a family member you can fill out a form giving them temporary ability to act for you. (Forms like this are common if a parent leaves for a vacation and leaves a minor child with a relative, friend, nanny...) 2. If he is not staying in your home and you are placing him in Respite care then you can instruct the facility to act on your behalf. Again you would probably have to fill out that same form.
When I placed my Husband in Respite I gave the facility my sisters name and information stating that if there were an emergency that she would be the one they should call. There was 1 "emergency" call. Nothing was really wrong but the situation was taken care of easily. (when I got home and actually found out what the "emergency" was I was livid! I was out of the country...telephone calls back and forth, emails back and forth....When I got home and read the full bill..the "emergency" was ATHLETES FOOT! )
I would check this with a lawyer. My daughter was 12 went she went to England with my mother. I was able to have paperwork made up giving my Mom the right to make decisions for my daughter if something happened.
Oh my so sorry for your long haul taking care of your son. Poor guy. Good for you for getting yourself that long overdue vacation! Sweet!
Does he live by himself? Does anyone care for him besides you? If you provide needed care on a daily basis, I would put him in respite care while you're gone. Someone to do meds, care for him and feed him while you're gone.
