Wills, Living Wills, and a Health Care Proxy….

Today I sat down and wrote out a Last Will and Testament — something I have avoided doing thus far in my life, but the ASSHOLE has kind of made it a necessity. I suppose I have to be responsible for some things sooner or later… *big sigh*

I also wrote a Living Will and Health Care Proxy to ensure that my needs and desires will be met in a manner that I see as fitting for my life and my end-of-life. Everyone who has been diagosed with a potentially fatal illness should do the same thing… It prevents any questions as to your wishes and gives clear instructions to loved ones and other survivors as to YOUR desires.

Actually, everyone over 40 should have a Health Care Proxy/Living Will drafted and given to their health-care providers, next of kin, etc…. Sometimes protecting ourselves includes the harsh reality of dying in a way that WE see as dignified…..
