"I don’t want a living will"

October 18, 2007

A Washington Post op-ed:

I’ve developed a sneaking suspicion that someone else may be hoping to call the shots. After three attempts to induce me either to sign up or to state my refusal to do so in writing, I had to wonder how voluntary a living will really is in many cases. In my case, I started to feel ever-so-slightly harassed.

Pallimed comments.
