My living will (humor, but serious as well)
    #4025752 - 04/07/05 10:47 AM (18 years, 11 months ago)

I just got a fax of a living will and thought I would post the contents. It is a bit of dark humor, but makes some very interesting points for debate:

Quote:


I, _____________, being of sound mind and body, do not wish to be kept alive indefinitely by artificial means.

Under no circumstances should my fate be put in the hands of peckerwood politicians who couldn't pass ninth-grade biology if their lives depended on it.

If a reasonable amount of time passes and I fail to sit up and ask for a cold beer, it should be presumed that I won't ever get better. When such determination is reached, I hear-by instruct my spouse, children, and attending physicians to pull the plug, reel in the tubes, and call it a day.

Under no circumstances shall the members of congress enact a special law to keep me on life-support machinery. It is my wish that these boneheads mind their own damn business, and pay attention instead to the health, education, and future of millions of Americans who aren't in a permanent coma.

Under no circumstances shall any politicians butt into this case. I don't care how many fundamentalist votes they're trying to scrounge for their next election. It is my wish that they play politics with someone else's life and leave me alone to die in peace with dignity.

I couldn't care less if a hundred religious zealots send e-mails to legislators in which they pretend to care about me. I don't know these people, and I certainly haven't authorized them to preach and crusade on my behalf. They should mind their own business, too.

If any of my family goes against my wishes and turns my case into a political cause, I hear-by promise to come back from the grave and make his or her existence a living hell.

Here is mine.

Quote:

I, _____________, being of sound mind and body, wish to be kept alive indefinitely by artificial means if need be, until my defective parts can be replaced by cybernetic/nanomechanical biomachines.

Under no circumstances should my fate be put in the hands of peckerwood politicians who couldn't pass ninth-grade biology if their lives depended on it.

If a reasonable amount of time passes and I fail to sit up and ask for a cold beer, please administer a vodka IV stat. When such determination is reached, I hear-by instruct my spouse, children, and attending physicians to cryogenically freeze my body in liquid N2 using a 10% DMSO/aqueous solution.

Under no circumstances shall the members of congress enact a special law to kill me. It is my wish that these boneheads pay attention to the health, education, and future of millions of Americans who are in a permanent coma.

Under no circumstances shall any politicians butt into this case. I don't care how many fundamentalist votes they're trying to scrounge for their next election. It is my wish that they play politics with someone else's life and leave me alone to exist in peace with dignity.

I couldn't care less if a hundred liberal loons send e-mails to legislators in which they pretend to care about my untimely demise. I don't know these people, and I certainly haven't authorized them to kill me. They should mind their own business, too.

If any of my family goes against my wishes and turns my case into a political cause, I hear-by promise to kick their ass with my new cybernetic body.

/gives a living will a try.

Quote:


I _______________, of sound mind, wish to be made a target of the media, if I ever become incapacitated to the extent that I cannot function due to a lack of consciousness/coherence.

I wish to be a spectacle, nationwide... As my existance somehow will be different then all the other subsequent deaths occuring in a daily basis as told by the obituaries in your local newspaper. My life shall be blown out of porportion, all the details concerning how I would up in said state shall be recounted many times over, as well as telling the news hungry personal fetishes, and pet peeves. In addition to this, I mandate that not only the U.S. president gets involved... but also the United Nations, as my existance holds greater relevance then many others... because... (I'll let you know as soon as I find out why Terri Schiavo's existance meant so fuckin' much)

... I wish for the all the major religions to get involved, and the one with the greatest pull and affluence and influence over this democractic nation where I firmly believe Seperation of Church and State fully exists; shall be the sole determinate of the aforementioned nature of my existance.

Should the religion with the greatest affluence choose for me to die, I'd request... an Irish funeral where everyone gets smashed to celebrate the life I lived, rather then mourn my demise. Furtermore, should said religion choose to end my life, and if it's acceptable to the religion in charge of my life; I'd like to be cremated, and my ashes thrown in a typical garbage can... as It seems much of everything in America, ultimately winds up at the dump, why not my remnants?
