A living will is a documented proof of the wishes only related to health care of any individual who is incapacitated or is not in a position to express their views. This will is created by the individual to point out all the medical treatments that they do or do not want during a fatal illness (an illness that would ultimately lead to death).
The living will acts as a power of attorney and takes effect only after the individual is incapacitated or is not in a position to express their views. This Will can only be revoked before you become incapacitated.
The Living Will gives you the rights to make the decision of whether life-prolonging medical or surgical procedures that would help you to sustain your life even though you will not be able to recover from the current state which would extend the suffering are to be used on you or not. It also gives you the option to decide when artificial feeding and fluids are to be used or withheld. The laws governing the will may differ from state to state. A living will is required to be signed in the presence of witnesses or notary public. In some states an attorney-in-fact may also be required to be appointed for the same.
