The Importance of End of Life Discussions

Even though the holidays are over and the opportunities for discussion may have passed, it's still a good idea, at any time to have discussions about peoples wishes at the end of life. This discussion does not need to be viewed as morbid or related to illness that family members worry will bring about the end.....it can be seen merely as a necessary process to be undertaken by every member of your household and viewed as a gift to the people who would be charged with making the decision for you. View more information about these discussions on CNN. Need help with starting the discussion or putting a framework to your plan? "Five Wishes" can help.
