Oh, good. The gov't, in their infinite wisdom, saw fit to remove it
from their VA website and the VHA sites.

Now, does anyone think it's horrible, scary, or mean?

What do you think, Larry? You didn't suddenly become shy, did you
grin?

I'm only shy in person. My keyboard liberates me, though.


I do not think that prolonging breathing is necessarily a good thing, au
contraire. I think living is worth while, if it is really living.
OTOH, this is a rather personal thing, so if you are willing to pay, do
as you wish. Just make sure the person is in favor of what is going to
happen to him or her.

That's precisely why the talk should be had and papers signed stating
the person's exact wishes. Note that they're amendable at any time
(second-thining your choices in the hospital with tubes in ya) by the
person who signed them. What more could a person ask for? OK,
EXcluding eternal life.
