"have you followed the documentation showing that the "laws" were slipped in under the influence of the Greer-Felos cohorts in order to allow them to have the appearance of "legality" in doing what they did to Terri -"

I've seen that speculation. Yes.

In the current instance, anyone know what the GA law is regarding the definition of next of kin?
"against the wishes of Mae Magouirk’s closest living next of kin."
In some states it is provided that the child is the next of kin if there is no spouse and if the child predeceases the person in question, then the child's child, the grandchild, stands next in the succession of next of kin?

My boyfriend died on January 3, 2004 at home with me under care of a Georgia hospice. He had a living will with me named and also a health care POA for me. I was able to make all decisions EXCEPT for one. He wanted to be cremated. The Georgia funeral home said they "could" take his brother's signature for approval of cremation, but that they really wanted his son's. (they were estranged). The funeral director had to call the son in California and they faxed back and forth with the son giving his permission for cremation.
