Really good blue booklet. In my own words I wrote to my loved ones instructions if I am unable to speak for myself. I sent to grown sons and husband. .then everyone can order this amazing booklet. 1 copy for free, additional just $3. Very very simple common sense questions. Your answers will guide your loved ones. A nurse told me about this book probably 10 years ago and I have passed out at least 30 to friends and every single one of them is so appreciative. Of course you want to fill it in when you are in good health and complete mental abilities.

Make sure you explicitly say that you want food and hydration even if by tube, and regular antibiotics for infections. They now consider this extraordinary treatment and will starve you to death without explicit instructions.

That is horrible but sadly not surprising. Was done alot during covid especially to the elderly or disabled.

The helpful booklet is called " your way" on the H.E.L.P. website
