摘要：
LGBT persons disproportionately reach later life without partners or children-the people most likely to provide support to older adults, and to engage them in conversations about advance care planning and end-of-life issues. Friends often rise to the challenges of caregiving, but with limits imposed by family-centered social customs and family-first policies and practices. Friends often feel unqualified to discuss advance care planning, or are not invited into such conversations. This dynamic, these limits, and their consequences are the focus of this article, which summarizes the literature, with examples drawn from the authors' qualitative study.
