Why do we execute a Medical Power of Attorney and an Advance Care Directive? Executing a Medical Durable Power of Attorney gives your agent the authority to make all but one medical decision for you, when you are incapable of making such decisions for yourself. That one remaining decision is the end-of-life decision (stop feeding me; take me off life support). That decision is, and should be, made only by you, using an Advance Care Directive, more commonly known as a Living Will. But when does the Living Will take effect? The answer is when two doctors state in writing that you are comatose with an irreversible medical condition and you have directed that life sustaining procedures be removed. At that point the Medical Power of Attorney no longer has authority and the Living Will takes over. Most Medical Powers of Attorney state that in the event of conflict with the Living Will, the Living Will prevails. You have the last word.

This is indeed helpful for people. Your agent should be trustworthy because he's the one who would decide for you if you can no longer decide for yourself. He's not a family member so you should wisely choose the agent who would decide for you if ever you are incapable of making medical decisions for yourself. Anyway, thanks for sharing this. Keep blogging!
