A member asked:

Can i change my mind once i've filled out a living will?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

YEs: A living will is made to direct care givers and your health care providers on what kind of care you would want in certain health circumstances. One can always change their mind about what is written in the advance directive. Unfortunately, people's families not have wanted; this, however, is allowed.
