New Living Will Form



I, __________________________, being of sound mind and body, do not wish to be kept alive indefinitely by artificial means. Under no circumstances should my fate be put in the hands of pinhead politicians who couldn't pass ninth-grade biology if their lives depended on it or lawyers/doctors interested in simply running up the bills.

If a reasonable amount of time passes and I fail to ask for at least one of the following:

______a Margarita
______a Scotch and water
______a Beer
______a Steak
______The remote control
______a Bowl of ice cream
______Chocolate
______Sex

it should then be presumed that I won't ever get better.

When such a determination is reached, I hereby instruct my appointed person and attending physicians to pull the plug, reel in the tubes and call it a day.

Signature:___________________________

How are you doing, Rufus/Ruth/Ruffie? Again, my friend, my condolences. :hug:
I'm being silly, but as a Ruth also, I've been called many things, but never 'Rev'!

4. Were you called Rufus, too?
Damn, that's too funny! I thought I was the only one! :)

I'm doing OK. Some days, better than others.

6. I already have an "official" one on file
w/ my doctor and my attorney.

If we added books and a computer w/ internet access I would have to change my form!

7. I'll never sign anything that has the word "pinhead" in it
It's a Bill O'Really word.
