[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is what happens when men remarry. He married and didn’t give your husband POA. Ultimately, this is what he gets due to that decision. I will be in the exact same situation. It sucks, but at the end of the day, my dad had choices and he choose not to give me medical POA.[/quote] This. But it also goes the opposite way. My dad’s wife told the doctor he didn’t want any lifesaving measures (a lie) and to pull the plug before we could get there in 12 hours to say goodbye. I told the doctor I had a signed, notarized POLST contradicting her and would sue the hospital if they listened to her.[/quote] So what happened at the end? Honestly it’s often selfish to keep a person alive and suffering so that someone who moved away anyway can come say goodbye and feel better. I am not saying this is your situation but the drs don’t pull the plug easily so… maybe it was a good idea [/quote]
