A living will is, like any other document. merely evidence of a present desire. We cannot write the future in advance.

Well then, that makes you one of the people who scare the bejeesus out of me.

That you would force my family to bear the financial and emotional burden to care for my brain damaged body, all the time them knowing that I didn't want to live that way, is unconscionable.

The life insurance money, the retirement money, the savings account, all to pay for my children's education and a decent living for my wife -- gone. Gone to pay the lawyers, the hospital, and the hospice.

Thank God this is still America where I have the constitutional right to refuse medical treatment and to tell busybodies like you to go $%# off.
