I continue to encourage people to get their living will done now while they are able to address the remote possibility of a catastrophic illness. It is important that you name a surrogate. More importantly, you must let the person you name as surrogate know that you named them and then get their confirmation that they can adhere to your wishes.
Do not name someone who CAN NOT agree with having life support withdrawn if you ever experience an end-stage condition or a permanent state of unconsciousness. Unfortunately, this has happened because either the person did not ask or confirm with their surrogate ahead of time. Listen and know that you are making the right decision with naming your surrogate.
