Living Will law allows patients to make their own decision, ahead of time, regarding life sustaining procedures.

However, many people go to their estate attorney's office with an understanding that they are "supposed" to sign a living will. Yet, those individuals, perhaps, don't fully understand what binding decisions they are making by executing their living will declaration.

The following are four reasons that informed people have stated to me why they would prefer not to have a living will in place:

(1) They want their family involved in the final decision at that time;
(2) They do not want two physicians having the final say;
(3) They want a time limit; and
(4) They don't want to make a decision today regarding nutrition and hydration.

Bottom line: Make an informed decision.
