GOLDEN VALLEY, Minn. — Talking about life-changing events like illness, injury and aging isn't always pleasant, but avoiding those conversations can make things much harder when they do happen.
A Twin Cities couple is trying to help spur important discussions with a new interactive workbook called "Family Conversations We Must Have But Do Not Want To." Lisa White, a registered nurse and Michael White, a licensed nursing home administrator and assisted living director, wrote the workbook to steer individuals, seniors, couples and families toward making life decisions so they're on the same page.
The Whites visited KARE 11 Saturday to talk about the book and the personal story that had them struggling in the search for answers to important questions.
"Family Conversations We Must Have But Do Not Want To" is available via Amazon or on the website family-conversations.com.
