Some people can tell their grown children anything. That’s their relationship and their comfort level around life and money.
Some adults can help their parent(s) formulate an aging plan, but others really want to help by controlling the task and don’t realize that it may create unnecessary conflict, both with the parent(s), and even with other immediate family and beyond.
If you don’t want to cause family conflict, it can be helpful to have an unrelated, business-like adult to help put an outline of your plan together. I wish that people would do this with their estate attorney, but I realize that not everyone is quite ready for that.
You may need to think it through a bit. Decide who you want making medical and financial decisions if you are unable. Who would care for dependents and how that would be financed. If you may need care, is long-term care insurance a possibility? Make some lists of assets and who they would go to.
Don’t wait too long as you need to get the paperwork done to solidify these plans. Sure, the State of Texas has some really helpful documents that you could use. You can view them on the Texas State Law Library website. https://guides.sll.texas.gov

BUT, you are going to want to get the advice of an excellent will and trust attorney to augment your plan,g ive you situation specific advice and draw up your documents.
If you do need another adult to chat with, or an attorney recommendation, feel free to call. I’m sure that I can help.
