He's exempt from both Federal and State laws regarding these issues. You know, I'm sure those clauses will be abused, and I really don't like the sound of some of it, but these days, having a living will is as prudent as having a regular will. Most of us find it uncomfortable talking about death, but your loved ones do need to know your wishes about "pulling the plug". I'm not uncomfortable about it at all - I have a living will and very specific instructions should I become incapacitated or unable to make the decision on my own due to mental incapacity (save the jokes). What bothers me is this ever growing intrusion into your personal life by people who have no business being in it. In both MA and CT it's almost as if they are trying to find something for their Social Workers to do so they keep adding to the list. Seriously, one of the questions is "do you feel safe". Ok, being the jerk I am, my immediate response "No - the chances of obtaining a terminal staph infection in your hospital are about 200% greater than getting one at my home." But it makes the point loud and clear. :) When you visit your hospital, you are questioned by a social worker? Really? -- A wise Latina makes better decisions than a dumb elephant. Social Worker union requirement. |
