[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My understanding from our family attorney is that the medical power of attorney should be done when your DC turns 18 years old. At that point parents no longer can speak for them. In a worse case situation, if your DC is unable to express what he/she wants in terms of medical treatment, theoretically your hands and hospital's could be tied without going to the courts. In practice, i would guess there's some flexibility but why take that chance. It's a fairly easy process to get one done.[/quote] Car or no car, get a General Durable Power of Atty in place. Without one, you cannot make ins claims (of any kind) for your DC if s/he is in a hospital or otherwise unavailable, and you cannot act as your DC's "general business agent" without one once your DC is 18. Yes, this is necessary. [/quote]
