guardian may only direct the withdrawal of life-sustaining medical treatment, including nutrition and hydration, if the incompetent ward is in a PVS and the decision to withdraw is in the best interest of the ward.

Dang, that sounds like a mighty elastic law — not sure how the lawyers feel about it, but to me it is not quite a high a standard as Florida’s “clear and convincing evidence” standard.
