  2. Problem Statement • In a 2012 study of Californians’ attitudes and experiences with death and dying, 60% of respondents said that making sure their family is not burdened by tough decisions about their care at the end of life is “extremely important.” • Yet 56% had not communicated their end-of-life wishes to the loved one they would want making decisions on their behalf, and only 23% said they have their wishes in writing. • 41% of Californians said they had too many other things to worry about right now • 39% said that they or their loved one didn’t want to think about death or dying.
