Once a child reaches the age of eighteen he or she is a legal adult. That means, if your legal adult living at home has a medical emergency, you have no right to any information about his condition. Parents can be shut out of the decision-making process in favor of the folks in white coats and scrubs and the legal eagles in suits and judicial robes.
I'm posting this next video from our End of Life Series and urge you to watch at least the first five minutes. It's a warning about what awaits your young adults if they end up hospitalized with no medical directive defending their rights.
It is absolutely essential that children who are young adults, but not yet married, or older individuals who are single, have legal documents assigning a medical power of attorney to a trusted adult. If you don't want some liberal judge assigning a stranger as "guardian" for your child or yourself, this should be an absolutely essential move. Hopefully, it won't be necessary, but if a young person is in an accident and ends up in a coma, many medical professionals will be salivating over the possibility of getting some fresh organs for the billion dollar organ "donation" industry. And if the person is elderly, they will happily push them over the cliff.
There are many good and ethical doctors. I hope you have one. But let's face it, not every doctor is Albert Schweitzer. We know that from the legion of hired white-coated killers in the abortion industry and the number of transgender enthusiasts who will happily butcher the bodies of little boys and girls.
The devil is alive and real and he has plenty of allies on the earth helping him. Protect yourself with prayer and prudence. I'm the power of attorney for my sister in a nursing home and will not sign or encourage her to sign a DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) order because they are often a death warrant. My husband and I have powers of attorney for each other.
Dr. Paul Byrne has a power of attorney form that you can access here. It costs nothing to fill it out and have it witnessed and notarized at your bank. Please do your children a favor and fill it out and have it witnessed before they go off to college in August! God forbid you ever need it, but do the prudent thing. Don't let them become the next victims of a an unethical medical system.
