10. If a trust is established for the surviving spouse, to what extent should he or she be permitted to invade the principal?

POWER OF ATTORNEY
(Powers of Attorney are only valid while you are alive. Your Executor takes over after your death.)
Do you now have a Power of Attorney?
If so, who is the named power of attorney?
If no Power of Attorney
Who would you like named as General (business) Power of Attorney? (Someone you trust completely, good with bookkeeping)
Who would you like named as Alternate General (business) Power of Attorney?
MONITORING
You need to decide whether you want any of your agent's actions monitored or reviewed by someone else. An advantage of a power of attorney is that it does not require court supervision. This lack of supervision also is one disadvantage of a power of attorney. You may want to add a provision requiring your agent to report to someone else if you become incapacitated and are not able to supervise what your agent is doing.
Do you want your agent to give an annual financial report to another family member or friend?
PAYING FEES
Decide whether you want to pay your agent for the time spent carrying out your decisions. An agent always can be reimbursed for expenses paid out-of-pocket on your behalf. In addition, you can authorize your agent to take an hourly fee. Professionals, like banks or accountants, normally charge a fee, but this is usually not done if the agent is a family member. If you want to authorize a fee, you need to require your agent to keep time records and charge a reasonable hourly rate. If the agent takes the fee, it is taxable income. You can specify a rate, if you wish.
Do you want your agent to be paid? Yes ____ No ____
If yes, how much? ____ "Reasonable amount" or ____ "hourly rate of $ _____ "

If you are unable to speak for yourself and are deemed “terminal” (terminal condition/end stage condition/permanent vegetative state) by two physicians and your Health Care Power of Attorney agrees, what are your preferences?:
Do you want to be revived or resuscitated (CPR)?
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a group of treatments used when someone's heart and/or breathing stops. CPR is used in an attempt to restart the heart and breathing. It may consist only of mouth-to-mouth breathing or it can include pressing on the chest to mimic the heart's function and cause blood to circulate. Electric shock and drugs also are used frequently to stimulate the heart. When used quickly in response to a sudden event like a heart attack or drowning, CPR can be life saving. But the success rate is extremely low for people who are at the end of a terminal disease process. Critically ill patients who receive CPR have a small chance of recovering and leaving the hospital. If you do not wish to receive CPR under certain circumstances, and you are in the hospital, your doctor must write a separate do-not-resuscitate (DNR) order on the chart. If you are at home, some states allow for a non-hospital DNR order. This order is written by a physician and directs emergency workers not to start CPR.
Do you want mechanical respiration/ventilation?
Mechanical ventilation: Mechanical ventilation is used to support or replace the function of the lungs. A machine called a ventilator (or respirator) forces air into the lungs. The ventilator is attached to a tube inserted in the nose or mouth and down into the windpipe (or trachea). Mechanical ventilation often is used to assist a person through a short-term problem or for prolonged periods in which irreversible respiratory failure exists due to injuries to the upper spinal cord or a progressive neurological disease. Some people on long-term mechanical ventilation are able to enjoy themselves and live a quality of life that is important to them. For the dying patient, however, mechanical ventilation often merely prolongs the dying process until some other body system fails. It may supply oxygen, but it cannot improve the underlying condition. When discussing end-of-life wishes, make clear to loved ones and your physician whether you would want mechanical ventilation if you would never regain the ability to breathe on your own or return to a quality of life acceptable to you.
Do you want antibiotics?
Do you want kidney dialysis?
Do you want tube feeding or any other artificial or invasive form of nutrition (food)?
Do you want any artificial or invasive form of hydration (water)?
Artificial nutrition and hydration: artificial nutrition and hydration (or tube feeding) supplements or replaces ordinary eating and drinking by giving a chemically balanced mix of nutrients and fluids through a tube placed directly into the stomach, the upper intestine or a vein. Artificial nutrition and hydration can save lives when used until the body heals. Long-term artificial nutrition and hydration may be given to people with serious intestinal disorders that impair their ability to digest food, thereby helping them to enjoy a quality of life that is important to them. But long-term use of the tube feeding frequently is given to people with irreversible and end-stage conditions. Often, the treatment will not reverse the course of the disease itself or improve the quality of life. Some health care facilities and physicians may not agree with stopping or withdrawing tube feeding. Therefore, explore this issue with your loved ones and physician and clearly state your wishes about artificial nutrition and hydration in your advance directive.
Do you want blood or blood products?
Do you want any form of life sustaining surgery or invasive diagnostic tests?
Do you want to allow physicians to try new medical discoveries on you?
Do you wish to donate your body to medical science?
Do you wish to donate any organs or tissues?

I wish my Agent/Health Care Power of Attorney to have the authority to: Indicate YES or NO

To consent, refuse, or withdraw consent to any and all types of medical care, treatment, surgical and/or diagnostic procedures, medication, and the use of mechanical or other means to affect any bodily function, including (but not limited to) artificial respiration and cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
To authorize my admission to or discharge from any hospital, nursing home or other facility, even against medical advice.
To authorize any medication or procedure intended to relieve pain, even though such treatment might lead to bodily damage, drug addiction, or hasten the moment of (but not intentionally cause) my death.
I wish my agent to have the same access to medical records and information to which I am entitled.
At the time of my death, if possible, I prefer: Indicate YES or NO
