🤔 Fact or Fiction: “My family would be too uncomfortable to talk about my final wishes.”

It’s a common belief—but often, it’s more fiction than fact. 💬❤️ While the topic can feel difficult at first, many families find that having the conversation brings relief, clarity, and even a deeper sense of connection.
