God bless, and I truly hope the best for you and yours. I honestly can't begin to tell you what I would do in that situation. If I were your son or husband though, I think I would want to spend as much time as I could with you without having to think about the end.
I would want to get in as many great memories as I could, not dwell on the past or the future, but live in the moment while we were still together to make moments.
A little mushy, sorry.
I think very thoughtful letters to go with the specific items you are thinking of that would be kept unopened (and hidden) until god finally calls you up (hopefully a long long time away).
Try not to dwell on it. I know I would want my loved ones to fight to the very last breath and to spend as much time with me as possible, and overall to be positive and as happy as possible. I can't imagine how hard that would be, but I am sure that is what your family really wants.
Letters would be the most cherished possession you could leave. Maybe also a diary for your daughter and future grandchildren (or current grandchildren, I don't know your family.)
God bless, and fight the good fight.
