No, let's have people think ahead for a change, and make their own wishes known. My husband and I had a medical power of attorney in place long before the Schiavo case. If anyone is out there without one AFTER the Schiavo case, they're pretty clueless.

Nope. The right to life is absolute regardless of any "living will" and if such a document allows active termination of life then it is null and void.

The right to life should not depend on whether you had the money to consult a lawyer beforehand.

Since when has the default been cancelled?

Preserve life. Do no harm.

The physician's oath?

The downward leftist spiral into insanity hasn't slowed it appear even here.

If you have a "living will" after the Schiavo case, you are the clueless one, unless you have a scientific and medical crystal ball.
