Product Description
Now that medical science can keep people alive almost indefinitely, frequently at an exorbitant cost, every person should consider having a living will. If you are in a life or death situation and are unable to communicate, your family could be forced to decide if they should continue or stop life support measures. This simple document could be the only way your family and doctors will know of your desires regarding your medical treatment. Without a living will, doctors and hospitals may feel compelled to give you useless medical treatment that you would not want, and your spouse or family members may become strapped with extensive and long-term medical bills. This book will show you how to write your own living will, without the expense of a lawyer. It covers all aspects of living wills, answering questions such as: What is a living will? Why does everyone need one? Do you need a lawyer to draft one? How is a living will used? How do you cancel a living will if you change your mind? Are there other basic legal forms everyone should have? In addition to explaining the law, this book also includes a reference guide to the laws and forms for all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Using Self Help Law Books --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
