National Advance Care Planning Week encourages all Australians to speak up about their future healthcare preferences and make sure their voice is heard and respected, regardless of what the future brings.
“If you were really ill, and could not speak to the doctors about the health care you wanted and did not want,
WHO would speak for you?
and WHAT would they say?”

This is awesome, but should be worldwide! Everyone needs to prepare an advance care directive, along with a will and putting down their funeral and burial wishes. Not a pleasant topic for many, but when crisis time arrives-that is not the time to think about what one wants and/or the family might need to make decisions.
