DA-FND-105:   
Michael Torres

Michael Torres is trying to understand whether donation is the right decision while also questioning whether the timing of the conversation is appropriate. He worries that donation may be influencing, or appear to influence, his mother's medical care. The advocate must establish trust, clearly separate treatment decisions from donation, and address perceived conflicts of interest with calm, transparent communication.

• Establishing trust before discussing donation
• Navigating conversations following a late referral
• Addressing perceived conflicts of interest
• Explaining the separation between end-of-life care decisions and organ donation
• Responding to concerns about the timing of donation discussions
