In this week's episode, Laurie dives into the difficult but necessary conversations around caring for aging or ailing parents. As their health declines, these talks become unavoidable - but that doesn't make them easy.
We discuss how to:
- Start conversations about care with compassion, and without waiting for a health crisis or emergency. Lead with empathy and understand their wishes.
- Get all decision-makers aligned, by including key people like siblings, doctors, lawyers.
- Revisit talks frequently as health or views change, and be prepared to have multiple conversations over time.
- Make legal and medical plans, like powers of attorney and advance directives.
- Handle tough topics like driving privileges and end-of-life care.
- Find support as both child and caregiver. This role reversal is emotionally complex.
Though painful at times, these conversations ensure your parents feel heard and empowered. You'll all feel more at peace knowing their wishes are honored.
