    I’ve had to tell my parents (both retired medical professionals) that going in for a biopsy is definitely something I should know about before they get results.

    The previous system was they’d tell me what the other was starting treatment for.

      While I agree in principle (to share with those invested in your wellbeing), might do the same, and am otherwise unqualified as a fairly young person without living parents to refer to, I think I can understand why someone would prefer to postpone the revelation of that kind of news to someone they loved, especially their kid, until they knew for sure.
