Re: Re: Re: Time for us to think serious about the future
me too. good one, John
it does bring up an important topic, however. My mom had emphezima ( sp? ) and didn't want to end up on a respirator. she signed a living will. when the time came ( she couldn't breathe out any more ) and she was not competent to tell the doctor what she wanted, the living will told the doctor what he had to do. one of my brothers tried to get the doctor to put her on the respirator but he said he couldn't do it. She got her way.
