Having a living will is an invitation for a hospital or nursing home to neglect you to death.

Please...let's not me so narrow minded. That's not the case...and I know it.

Are you on the legal end or the medical end.

Being on the medical end, I’ve seen it happen over and over.

It is swept under the rug but it is very much common knowledge.

Most states in wrongful death or malpractice cases where there is a death base judgments on Years of life and earning potential.

If an elderly person winds up dead through neglect they aren’t worth a dime .

For a lawyer there is more money in a bed sore than in the death of an elderly person.
