I was just going to post on this.

What are the sorts of items that can or should be in a Durable Medical Power of Attorney?
As I understand this is one place to list medical directives.
E.g.:
- don't restart my heart
- don't use breathing machines or feeding tubes
- my agent is John Doe with backup agent Jane Doe

Durable means it continues to take effect after the person can no longer communicate or make medical care decisions. It terminates upon death.

Hopefully there are some lawyers here knowledgeable that can chime in.
