Even though you set out your wishes in your living will, such documents can never cover every circumstance, and the person who has a durable power of attorney for healthcare can make decisions not covered by your living will.
There are two basic documents that allow you to set out your wishes for medical care: a living will and a durable power of attorney for health care. It's wise to prepare both. In some states, the living will and the power of attorney are combined into a single formoften called an advance directive.

Living will. A living will is a written, legal document that spells out medical treatments you would and would not want to be used to keep you alive, as well as your preferences for other medical decisions, such as pain management or organ donation. In determining your wishes, think about your values.
A Living Will must be made in writing and witnessed by at least two adults. There are additional rules for witnessing and signing a Living Will. The witnesses must be adults who affirm that you are of sound mind and that signing the Living Will is your own choice. You cannot witness your own Living Will.
