I didn’t write this myself, but I wish I had.
I, __________________________, being of sound mind and body, do not wish to be kept alive indefinitely by artificial means.
Under no circumstances should my fate be put in the hands of peckerwood politicians who ouldn’t pass ninth-grade biology if their lives depended on it.
If a reasonable amount of timepasses and I fail to sit up and ask for:
(Please initial all that apply)
_________a martini,
_________a Dewars and Water
_________a Mojito,
_________a steak,
_________ The remote control,
__________ A bowl of ice cream,
_________ a Kualua on the rocks,
_________ Sex,
_________ Chocolate
then it should be presumed that I won’t ever get better. When such a determination is reached, I hereby instruct my appointed person and attending physicians to pull the plug, reel in the tubes,and call it a day.
Under no circumstances shall the members of the Legislature enact a special law to keep me on life-support machinery. It is my wish that these boneheads mind their own damn business, and pay attention instead to the future of the millions of Americans who aren’t in a permanent coma.
