A living will is a legal document in which you record your preferences for medical treatment at the end of life — while you are still able to express them — so that doctors and family members can honor your wishes if you become incapacitated. It typically addresses whether you want life-sustaining measures such as CPR, mechanical ventilation, tube feeding, or dialysis in specific scenarios, such as a terminal illness or permanent unconsciousness. A living will may also name a healthcare agent (sometimes called a healthcare proxy) to interpret your wishes. Every U.S. state recognizes advance healthcare directives, though signing requirements — witnesses, notarization — vary. Executing a living will reduces family conflict, relieves loved ones of difficult decisions, and ensures your medical care reflects your values.
