In this video, Megan explains why we shouldn&#8217;t postpone such conversations.<\/p>\n<p>People have a tendency to wait too long to discuss end-of life wishes with their family.

We need to have these hard conversations early to make for a smoother and more beautiful end-of-life transition.<\/p>\n<p>For more stories about hospice please our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCMv9VFcJj--AEPxnpEUmoNw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Youtube Channel<\/a><br \/>\nClick here for more information on <a href=\"https:\/\/matrixbricks.us\/suncrest\/hospice\/\">Hospice Services<\/a>\u00a0or <a href=\"https:\/\/matrixbricks.us\/suncrest\/home-health\/\">Home Health<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;873&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What happens when we wait too long to discuss end-of-life wishes with our family?
