Grief is described as deep sorrow. As a human, living on Planet Earth, I would say grief cannot be avoided. 
Grief comes from loss. We all will suffer loss at some point in our life. 
End of life planning is not intended to avoid grief; rather, making and discussing your end of life plan helps you to live your life more fully. This happens because conversation begins, the idea of forgiveness presents itself, and engaging in final conversations or making sure to say 'I love you' can bring a sense of comfort and/or peace at the end of life. Joy and peace can take the place of uncertainty or anguish. You may get to hear some wonderful sentiments from those you most care about or share some wonderful memories together.
