No. Calmly overcome the inertia. End of life decisions are best not made as loved ones slip away. Their mind is preoccupied with another level of being, that you will become increasingly familiar with. </strong></p>
<p><strong>The &#8216;pink card&#8217;, hospice,  the DNR/DNI (Do Not Resuscitate/Do Not Incubate) decision, the POA (Power of Attorney/Financial/Medical), the Will, the Living Trust, the bequeathments, the arrangements. The child stepping up to lead, suggest, direct, remind, implement. </strong></p>
<p><strong>Whether for your spouse, parent, grandparent or yourself&#8230;move&#8230;get it done.<br />
