The advance directive is good advice. May God heal the sick and bring together the troubled.
Well said.
Since I'm dealing with my parents' issues in Florida, there's something else to know. In addition to advance directives, living wills, healthcare powers of attorney, etc., there is the Do Not Resuscitate Form (DNR).
I expect that each state has its own regulations and that each of us will need to do some footwork to find the answer, but at least in Florida, CPR is very likely to be started on a patient whose heart has stopped unless it can be shown that the patient has a DNR form. In addition to state-specific text and required signatures, the Florida form is only valid when printed on yellow paper. And yes, it's another form that will only be followed if folks know of the existence of the form or can quickly find a copy to share with responding first aid personnel.

My favorite aunt (mom's sister) had a brain aneurysm on Thursday. Then while my mom and I stayed up all night hold my aunts hand in ICU, my mom, who had been battling lower right chest pain all evening) finally went down the ER. She's been admitted with a gallbladder infection and pancreatitis. We've been waiting for the pancreas to calm down to do surgery. Hoping it will be today. My cousins finally stopped world war 3 regarding heroic life saving efforts on my aunt. She didn't want to be a vegetable and finally everyone accepts that.
If you don't have an advance directive please get one.
Not having one tears families apart. She told all of us of her wishes, but in their grief many family members refused to accept. So PLEASE don't do that to yours. My mother has hers in writing and copies with several local hospitals and her clergy people. I don’t believe it will be needed with this surgery. Pretty routine except the pancreas acting up with it.
So if you’ve been wondering where I’ve been, now you know. May be away a bit longer as I care for my mom and assist my cousins through the days ahead.
Hope you all are healthy and well.
Please be nice to Jonathan!

May your Aunt find peace and your mom recover quickly.
