This is a very good point about the Medical Power of Attorney. My husband and I have this. It's not easy to have to talk about and face these issues, but after caring for my Dad for almost 20 years, I realized some things just have to be faced head on.
On a lighter note, my hubby said I am a softie and would let him hang on forever and I'm afraid he'll pull the plug on me if I nap too long!
