Subject: but a living will can not.....
In reply to: Bee 's message, "In which case you would leave a living will" on 16:34:53 03/24/05 Thu

be followed through with if there was something illegai in it.
Like......when I die I want my children killed and buried with me...I know thats a bit far fetched but I cant think of many more examples right now.

IMHO it is illegal to assist someone to die or to help someone to die with actions that would cause their death. Taking her feeding tube would not end her life imediatiatly....like taking a brain dead person off a breathing machine. Taking her or anyone off a feeding tube could take up to two weeks for death to follow.

very sad situation

Blessings
Jean
