How about legalized hearsay?
DNRs should be written down. Period, end of sentence.
This 'legal guardian' verbal-stuff is pure bull cr@p. Especially when it comes to greedy relatives- the LAST group you should trust.
You CAN'T take someone's HOUSE (property) without a WRITTEN contract (a title)!!! Why is one's LIFE somehow less important, than a piece of real estate?
I'm going to try that sometime, "He SAID I could have that residence & lot! Sure - he's gone / or disabled and cannot speak now, but - Hey, it was a VERBAL agreement!, blah-blah."
