When it comes time to consider advanced care planning, talking about it with your loved ones can often be tough because it may be hard for them to hear what you have to say. Talking is important. In fact, it's everything. If you need someone to make important healthcare decisions for you, they need to know what you would have chosen. They need to know about your health, what's currently happening, and what the future might hold. They need to understand the things you value most, including what you want to happen and what you don't. Finally, try to talk through the things that are on your mind, including the trade-offs you would consider if it meant you could still do the things you love.
It's difficult, but you need to prepare them to help you live the life you want to live. When you're ready, talk to your family, your friends, and your doctor, with anyone you trust who could make decisions for you because the first step in any advanced care plan is talking.
