Estate planning isn’t just about what happens to your assets
after you die. It’s also about protecting yourself and your loved ones. This
includes having a plan for making critical medical decisions in the event
you’re unable to make them yourself. A living will expresses your preferences
for the use of life-sustaining medical procedures, such as artificial feeding
and breathing, surgery, invasive diagnostic tests, and pain medication. It also
specifies the situations in which these procedures should be used or withheld.
Living wills often contain a do not resuscitate order. Contact us with
questions.
