LIVING WILL and MEDICAL DURABLE POWER OF ATTORNEY I.

LIVING WILL
I, Sammy Espinoza, being of sound mind and at least eighteen years of age, direct that my life shall not be artificially prolonged under the circumstances set forth below and hereby declare that: A. LIFE-SUSTAINING PROCEDURES If at any time my attending physician and one other qualified physician certify in writing that: If I, Sammy Espinoza, am in a terminal condition, or an irreversible coma (or a persistent vegetative state), that my doctors reasonably feel to be irreversible or incurable, I DO NOT want my life to be prolonged and I DO NOT WANT life-sustaining treatment, beyond comfort care, that would serve ONLY to artificially delay the moment of my death. B. ARTIFICIAL NOURISHMENT If I have a condition stated above, it is my preference that artificial nourishment shall not be continued. _______ (Declarant's initials) C. PREGNANCY If I have been diagnosed as pregnant and that diagnosis is known to my physician, this document shall have no force or effect during the course of my pregnancy. However, if at any point it is determined that it is not possible that the fetus could develop to the point of live birth with continued application of life-sustaining procedures, it is my preference that this document be given effect at that point. If life-sustaining procedures will be physically harmful or unreasonably painful to me in a manner that cannot be alleviated by medication, I request that my desire for personal physical comfort be given consideration in determining whether this document shall be effective if I am pregnant. D. CONSULT I hereby request that the following individuals be notified and given an opportunity to consult with my physician(s) prior to the withholding of any life-sustaining treatment. This request does not provide the named individuals with authority to override the decision of my physicians, only the opportunity to offer their opinions and input regarding my condition and circumstances: Name: Adrian Barbo Address: 13 Plum St
