The Living Will

There are many things one learns during a lifetime, and if I've learned nothing else from the very public Terry Schiavo story, it is that we each should make a Living Will and give a copy of that Will to our spouse, partner, parent, child or whomever.

Johnny and I downloaded forms from several sites this morning. We'll look them over tonight and decide which to use, but we are definitely going to 'put into writing' that which we've always said to one another concerning the end of life.

I intend to send copies to my mother and my children as well even though I've already verbally told them my wishes many times.
