See it all the time everyone in agreement, then when something happens, it can fall apart. For one parent the directive was in place, however spouse and other children went ballistic, even though all were in agreement with each having a copy. Trying to pull the plug, even with medical experience became difficult, when your parent, and siblings want to kill you instead.
