Living Will
LIVING WILL - DECLARATION
I
Edward C Aylward, wilfully and voluntarily make known my desire that my
dying not be artificially prolonged under the circumstances set forth
below, and I do hereby declare:
In the absence
of my ability to give directions regarding the use of life-prolonging
procedures, it is my intention that this Declaration be honoured by my
family and doctors, health care surrogate and friends, as the final
expression of my legal right to refuse medical and surgical treatment
and to accept the consequences for such refusal.
I hereby
wilfully and voluntarily direct that my dying shall not be artificially
prolonged, and that life-prolonging procedures shall be withheld or
withdrawn from me when it has been medically determined by my doctors
that I am in one of the four conditions stated below. By the term
"life-prolonging procedures" I mean those medical procedures,
treatments or interventions which utilise mechanical or other
artificial means to sustain, restore or supplant a spontaneous vital
function, and which would serve only to prolong the process of dying.
I wish to have
artificial nutrition and hydration (food and water) withheld or
withdrawn as well as other life-prolonging procedures under the four
conditions below. I wish to be permitted to die naturally with only the
administration of medication or the performance of any medical
procedure deemed necessary to provide me with comfort care or to
alleviate pain.
1. If at any time I should have a terminal condition from which there can be no recovery and my death is imminent.
2. If at any
time I am comatose with no reasonable prospect that I will ever regain
consciousness or return to a cognitive sapient state.
3. If at any
time I am in a persistent vegetative state with an absence of cognitive
behaviour and I am unable to communicate or interact purposefully with
the environment.
4. If at any
time I have a terminal condition from which there can be no recovery,
but my death is not imminent, and as a result of my condition I am
experiencing great pain and/or discomfort from which I can obtain no
relief.
I understand the full import of this Declaration, and I am emotionally and mentally competent to make this Declaration.
