Overview
A Living Will gives you a say in the medical procedures you receive if you're permanently unconscious or terminally ill and unable to communicate your instructions. Have you considered what you would want to happen if an accident or illness left you in a coma or in a permanent state of unconsciousness? Or, what if you were diagnosed with an irreversible terminal illness? Would you want to have your life prolonged by any means possible - even at the expense of your quality of life? Or, would you prefer to have a natural death? A living will allows you to instruct your healthcare providers and your family regarding the use or non-use of certain life-sustaining medical procedures in the event that you are terminally ill or permanently unconscious and unable to communicate your wishes. The provisions in your living will generally apply where you are unable to communicate your wishes and after doctors have examined you and agreed that medical procedures will only prolong your death. Enodare's lawyers have put together a book which, in plain English, tells you all you need to know about living wills. The book is called Make Your Own Living Will . Make Your Own Living Will introduces you to living wills, the types of medical procedures that living wills cover, the matters that you need to consider when making a living will and, of course, provides you with all the relevant forms you need to make your own living will! In this book, we also look at the various legalities surrounding the making of living wills, when they come into operation and what types of medical procedures they cover. We also take a close look at related documents such as healthcare powers of attorney, do-not-resuscitate orders and organ donation cards. You will be provided with step-by-step instructions, detailed information and all the state specific legal forms necessary to prepare your own living will. Don't wait until it's too late - Make a Living Will NOW!
