Living Will The living will sets forth your wishes regarding medical care, should you not be able to communicate and there is no hope for recovery. It addresses whether you wish to have life support systems or nourishment, and it gives your doctor and other medical personnel guidance on how to best treat you when they determine that you cannot survive without life support or are in an irreversible coma. The documents above will help you determine the quality of your life and the disposition of your assets and tangible personal property. Joyce M.
