Quakers Ted Taylor and Susan Hoskins have teamed up to encourage all adults age 18+ to have family conversations about their wishes. They feel it’s a challenging time right now, “when people can get very sick very quickly,” and families facing Covid 19 conditions may not be able to visit hospitalized loved ones.
It is important to think what your own care wishes might be, and document them in helpful ways. For this reason Ted and Susan have developed and shared this educational video with the PYM community. Share it with your adult children and friends; watch it with your , partner, or spouse to help identify, discern, and legally state your care priorities today.
