Finally, the one Living Will that makes sense!
Edited on Thu Apr-20-06 01:29 PM by davsand
I, _____ _____________________, being of sound mind and body, do not wish to be kept alive indefinitely by artificial means.


Under no circumstances should my fate be put in the hands of posturing politicians, religious nuts, or lawyers/doctors interested in simply running up the bills or protecting their butts from malpractice suits.


If a reasonable amount of time passes and I fail to ask for at least one
of the following:

______a Bloody Mary,
______a Margarita
______a Beer
______a Steak
______Lobster, shrimp, or cat fish
______The remote control,
______Chocolate
______Sex in some form
______Mexican Food of any type,

it should be presumed that I won't ever get better.

When such a determination is reached, I hereby instruct my appointed person and attending physicians to pull the plug, reel in the tubes and go get a beer.
