Living Wills.
Posted: 12 Aug 2013 11:30
I wonder if anyone can advise me please. Especially on the living will side.
I have my will in place for my possessions and I'm arranging for power of attorney, but as I've be given a prognoses of median survival of 3 and a half years in June 2013, I want to sort out the Living Will side of things.
I want to survive as long as possible and don't want someone to take a "Do Not Resuscitate" directive to literally. If there is a chance of me keeping going with treatment.
However, I don't want to leave my daughter with a decision to have to turn off the ventilator, or to have to agree to stop treatment.
I want to save her from that.
Has anyone made a living will? Any advice would be appreciated.
