While we all wait to see how the Terri Schiavo case plays out and if the state is allowed to pronounce a death sentence on this poor woman, I thought I would take this opportunity to make a public statement. I'm assuming and hoping this declaration will serve as a "Living Will" since I'm too cheap to get a lawyer and notary publics are annoying.
Here goes...I, The Beloved Deb, being of sound (cough) mind and gorgeous body, do declare that in the event of some unforeseen tragedy that leaves me in a vegetative, near vegetative, semi-vegetative, comatose or overly drowsy state, that no one is given permission to remove any life-sustaining tube, pump or drip from me.
In addition, everything possible means to keep me alive and breathing, whether on my own or by machine should be mobilized.
I want all my friends and family to visit regularly and say loudly how much they love me. I want someone to do my make-up and put hats on me. Also, bring me presents. And it would be nice if Godiva chocolates and In-N-Out cheeseburgers (with onions) could be routinely run thru my breathing tube.
I want to be dressed up every Friday night and taken to dinner at Le Dome.
I expect to look really cute at all times and would appreciate it if someone would load my iPod.
Now, no one can say, I would rather die than live in a suspended state of nothingness. It ain't true. I'm stickin' and if any Democrat attempts to put me out of my "misery", I want them sued, jailed and publicly denounced.
Thanks in advance, The Beloved Deb
That is sooooooooo sweet Deb.... I love it.
Um, I don't think you want food run through your breathing tube,,,,,maybe your feeding tube would be better???
Gonna need some visual verification, for um, legal purposes...
hey man, if she wants food down her breathing tube, who are we to deny that?
Take care what you wish for, your wish might be granted.
You're my witness.
Thank you for making me smile! I've been crying for the past half hour! :-)
Deb, mind if I plagerize that?
LOL! I believe the whole idea is to be kept alive and shoving cheeseburgers down the breathing tube defeats the purpose!!! LOL!
Hmmmmmmmmm, very interesting indeed
I find inhaling Godiva far superior to eating.
Thank you, Honey.
No problem.
LOL! Good luck to you!!! Sweet chocolate, death by chocolate, what a way to go!!
LOL I just realized what you wrote. You want your breathing tube stuffed with a hamburger? NAH I would prefer my feeding tube stuffed with a burger! But whatever you want - it's your living will! I can read the headlines the next morning WOMAN KILLED BY HAMBURGER!
um, if yer not using that gorgeuos body, may we borrow it from time to time?
It doesn't make sense to destroy good chocolate or cheeseburgers by liquifying them when the breathing tube goes right by there and can drop stuff off.
Damn, I forgot that part. I'll have to amend my statement.
