Summary
This study looks at whether having guided conversations about care preferences helps young adults (ages 18-39) who are about to receive a stem cell transplant, along with their caregivers. Participants will fill out questionnaires and have three talks with a study team member over several weeks to discuss their values, fears, and goals. The goal is to learn if these discussions are helpful, timely, and meaningful, not to test a new treatment.
