I was just getting engaged at 25. Isn't "whattya think about living with a g-tube" the question everyone immediately asks after they propose?

Nope, you have to decide on the denture cream first. Keep your priorites in order.

On second thought, knowing the mindset of liberals, his sincerity will NOT be doubted, sadly, since those people aren't as bright as us Freepers!!!
If they can be fed CNN"S and the other alphabet's lying and biased drivel every day, our country is in great peril.

I was engaged at 25 as well. When I was first married, we would get these calls from funeral directors (?) trying to sell us cemetary plots. I used to tell them I was just married and thinking about having babies.....give me a break. I finally got where I'd just hang up on them. Never once did my husband and I discuss life support or feeding tubes or any thing like that. Even when my grandmother, who was living with us at the time, had her second stroke and a decision had to be made about life support, he left the decision completely with me.

You're right, this is NOT something young people think about or discuss. Yeah, perhaps in passing, as in watching a movie or TV show, but I hardly think that casual (and I might add, entirely emotional) remarks are legally binding...well, at least until Felos and Greer decided to take it upon themselves to make them so.
