How can someone plan in advance for to, not be a burden on a spouse in the
event of them being debilitated by a stroke.
Especially if the person wants to live in their home until they die this is
important.
In certain circumstances in a hospital or nursing home, stipulations can be made
for a spouse to "pull the plug" if the Dr. deems it appropriate.
But otherwise in the aforementioned scenario what can be specified by
the "patient" so their wishes may be met.
Should a person, with a lawyer draw up papers that specifies that they want to die
under certain circumstances.
What is the law in your State?
For me because I had two strokes and two heart attacks I want to make specific
plans so as to not be in a position where I can not know my my real situation.
Then I want to die, That is clear.
But laws that do not make sense may be in effect.
I would want for my spouse to be able to decide according to my wishes.
Any suggestions?
