If you haven't set up your living will, treatment directive, medical directive, whatever other name that goes by where you live, you need to set that up now! if you know you don't want to be resuscitated, or live life with brain damage or half brain dead, your doctor and family and health care provider need to know that! If someone else gets to make the decision, you might end up in a bad situation.
