DA-FND-101:   
Emily Bennett

Emily Bennett is uncertain how to honor her father's memory after he is declared brain dead. Rather than seeking facts about donation, she is searching for meaning. The advocate must help her reflect on her father's values and legacy without becoming persuasive or directing the decision.

• Use inspiration to help a family member discover meaning without persuasion
• Explore the donor's values, relationships, and life story before discussing donation outcomes
• Balancing hope with grief in language that feels authentic and grounded
• Avoiding overly positive statements that minimize the family's loss
• Helping an uncertain decision-maker move from abstract confusion to values-based reflection
