Do you have a living will? My wife and I both wrote living wills several decades ago. We don't want some machine to keep us alive when we should be dead, and we don't want our children to make the call on whether or not to pull the plug. We both believe that we will go to a better place after death, and this life doesn't have a whole lot of appeal for us. I hope that we can both die quietly, but I don't think that when, where, or how is our decision to make.

We do, and it's it is important to know the difference between that and an ndr. An ndr does not go into effect until your heart stops. This means you can lay in bed in excruciating pain from here to Eternity and nothing can be done to facilitate your passing. Of course, that is an oversimplification. But it gets the point across, I hope.
