![]() What is a living will? In North Carolina, a living will, also referred to as an Advanced Directive for a Natural Death, specifies what type of health care and medical treatments you prefer if you are unable to direct your health care. Without a living will in place, in the event you suffer from an illness or accident that leads to your incapacitation, you won’t be able to make decisions regarding your health care treatment. When you have a living will, you may specify what health care treatment you desire, even if you cannot communicate this to your health care provider. A living will allows you to direct your health care provider to provide you with the maximum care possible, minimum care possible, or leave the decision to the discretion of an appointed health care power of attorney agent. A health care power of attorney works in conjunction with a living will. This is the document that appoints your health care agent. A health care agent is someone who can direct your health care in the event of your incapacitation. Most people choose their spouse, significant other, relative, or close friend to be their health care power of attorney. In North Carolina, the only requirements for being a health care power of attorney are that you are at least 18 years old and you are not being compensated for your position.

I really want to thank Dr Emu for saving my marriage. My wife really treated me badly and left home for almost 3 month this got me sick and confused. Then I told my friend about how my wife has changed towards me. Then she told me to contact Dr Emu that he will help me bring back my wife and change her back to a good woman. I never believed in all this but I gave it a try. Dr Emu casted a spell of return of love on her, and my wife came back home for forgiveness and today we are happy again.
