I don't think it's up to me unless it's about me, if you are in a position to ask and have the conversation about end of life care and what it means then do and get it written up and signed, now.
So many of us put it off until it is too late to do anything about our personal wishes and values, such a shame as then it's up to someone else and none of us want the responsibility of deciding for someone else.
If you are talking to your children about it then get them to decide for themselves, get it written down, signed and be a part of their lives ongoing, when their circumstances change then they are re-write and re-sign the paperwork, it is our own responsibility to take care of ourselves.
With best wishes from Jo
