For example, you may wish to initiate this conversation with an older family member or friend.You may choose to have them complete the Starter Kit, if they haven’t done so already.What are their wishes?Have the conversation with them, regarding their preferences.

§Alternatively, you may wish to have the conversation regarding your wishes with a loved one.

b.Having the conversation may reveal that you and your loved ones disagree. That’s okay. It’s important to simply know this, and to continue talking about it now—not during a medical crisis. Having the conversation isn’t just a one-time thing. It’s the first in a series of conversations over time.
