ing licensed by the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA). The Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC) and FDA continue to mon-

Vaccine side effects are usual-
ly mild and temporary. The most
colrunon side effects include sore-
hess, redness, or swelling at the in-
jection site. Severe side effects are
very rare.
Vaccines are one of the safest
ways to protect your health. Most
people, even those with health con-
ditions or taking prescription drugs,
should be vaccinated. However, if
you are pregnant or have a weakened
tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis
(whooping cough)
Based on your age, health con-
ditions, vaccines you received as a
child, and other factors, you may
need additional vaccines such as:
Chickenpox
Hepatitis A
Hepatitis B
Human Papillomavirus (HPV)
-MMR
Meningococcal
Pneumococcal
Shingles

If he has a complex estate, you
may want to hire an attorney or tax
account to guide you through the
process, with the estate picking up
the cost. If you need help locating a
pro, the National Association of
Estate Planners and Councils
(naepc.org) and the National Acad-
emy of Elder Law Attorneys
(naela.org) are great resources that
provide directories on their websites
to help you find someone.
Avoid Conflicts
Find out if there are any conflicts
between the beneficiaries of your
friend's estate. If there are some po-
tential problems, you can make
your job as executor much easier if
everyone knows in advance who's
getting what, and why. So ask your
friend to tell his beneficiaries what
they can expect. This includes the
personal items too, because wills of-
ten leave it up to the executor to dole
out heirlooms. If there's no distri-
bution plan for personal property,
suggest he make one and put it in
writing.
Executor Fees
As the executor, you're entitled
to a fee paid by the estate. In most
states executors are entitled to take
a percentage of the estate's value,
which usually ranges anywhere
from 1 to 5 percent depending on the
size of the estate. But, if you're a
beneficiary, it may make sense for
you to forgo the fee. That's because
fees are taxable, but Uncle Sam in
most states don't tax inheritances.
For more information on the du-
ties of an executor, get a copy of the
book "The Executor's Guide: Set-
tling A Loved One's Estate or Trust"
for $32 at nolo.corn or call 800-728-
