Where do YOU draw the line? - An insider's guide to effective Living Wills, Healing and Critical Care (Paperback)

Every adult should read this book. In the USA you are considered to be a "Full Code" i.e. we will automatically keep you alive no matter what, if we can, unless you tell us otherwise. Is this what you want? Is it what your loved ones want for you or for themselves? Have you all EFFECTIVELY communicated your healthcare wishes? Linda Ingalls RN and critical care nurse for over 30 years wants to inform and empower you to understand the levels of resuscitation, critical care and long term life supports as well as your end of life choices so you can make decisions based upon Love not fear and then how to effectively communicate your wishes. She gives you guidelines she has successfully used with countless people to approach these subjects; how to ask relative questions of your doctors; and discusses withdrawing life support to promote a peaceful passing. She provides you with techniques on coping and creating a healing environment when you visit. Also included is a basic introduction to critical care equipment and common illnesses
