I'm stealing a page from [livejournal.com profile] frogmajick, even though I've already told my mom and dad this and I'd like to think they'd remember.

If I'm in a horrible accident or something and end up in a coma, for the love of frosted donuts, would you just let me go? I'm not sure I believe in Heaven, but I definitely believe that anything ... anything ... has to be better than lying in a bed staring at the ceiling. And if you believe in Heaven, then why do you want to keep me here?

Unplug my ass. (The first person to make a snarky crack at that gets trout-slapped.) I can't write, I can't read, I can't watch "Jake 2.0", I can't shag my friends list. Trust me, I'm not having any fun.

And if I'm braindead? Yeah, as much as the morbid, Halloween-lovin' part of my brain would like to be a zombie, let's not do that, okay?

And remember what I said about donating my organs. Whatever you don't give to the needy, I bring back from the afterlife and fling at your head.

There. Now that's saved for posterity.

I'm happy yours is online for posterity too. I was reading MSN last night about that woman in Florida who has been in a PVS for 10 years and her parents adn husband have been fighting over her. The court finally ruled that her husband can make the decision and he said remove the tube. Basically let her starve to death, but don't outright KILL her. Suddenly the state leg give Gov Bush power over her and makes the docs put the feeding tube back in. For fucks sake, just let this poor woman go! Let the husband get on with his life! It's been 10 years!

So yeah, in a fit of "this will never happen to me" I figured I'd better have my wishes in the ether so my mom or whoever couldn't contest it when my husband fulfilled my wishes.
