Terri Schiavo and the Living Will

The sad case of Terri Schiavo really aches me. I feel terrible that without her feeding tube she is literally starving to death. What WERE her wishes? Is her husband right when he claims that she would have wanted to die? Are her parents correct when they claim that she would have wanted to live on in her condition? I just don't know. Please, everyone who reads this, get yourselves a LIVING WILL!!! This can be provided by a lawyer or maybe there are other places to get one; that I am not sure of. A living will is a short document that states whether or not you wish to be kept alive by machines or feeding tubes in the event that doctors conclude you will be in some sort of persistive vegetative state. Don't skip this step when making your will, guys! It can save a lot of heartache and grief for your loved ones should God forbid something happen to you. I have one saying I would not want to be kept alive if I were essentially a permanent vegetable. It's easy for a lawyer to draw one up; they probably have a form on their computer and they or their secretary just fills in the blanks specific to your situation and then you sign it. Terri's case is strong evidence that a living will is a good thing to have especially if you strong feelings about life/death and/or you have children. Get one!
