I do not disagree with you. I only pointed out that the VA has a tool that is useful. It is not mandatory. It is no different than the questionairres that doctors offices give to families.
I am not in favor of any government involvment in health care and you will never find a place where I have said that I am.
I agree it is a useful tool between the doctor, patient, and family. Both my parents had living wills for that reason.
Would like to know what deranged person came up with the idea of the Feds being involved in end of life issues.
