Do you what will happen to you if you end up in a coma?
Well, medical personnel will make a number of life-saving decision to start things. Then they’ll confer with your family regarding future treatment.
But what if you and your family don’t agree with what treatment? Will you be able to voice your opinion? No, unless you have a living will.
Living wills are documents that give you the power to control the medical services you receive. If you end up injured and unable to communicate, medical personnel will base their treatment on what you asked for in your living will, not on family members or the law.
Because anyone, young or old, large or small, can end up in a traumatic health situation, everyone should have a living will. And even if you have a living will, if you’re moving, then you will need to update your living will.
