Abstract
Every person has a unique belief system including personal values based on family traditions, life experience, spiritual and religious beliefs, and knowledge. Medical decisions that we make for ourselves are based on those beliefs and values that matter most to us. Most of us are aware of the court battles that have raged over "right to die" cases.
This publication helps a person understand the meaning of the living will and medical durable powers of attorney.
