Alabama Living Will

This document serves as a directive regarding the health care decisions of the undersigned, [Your Name], hereafter referred to as the "Principal". This Living Will is made by the laws of the State of Alabama to guide my family, doctors, and healthcare agents when I am not capable of making decisions regarding my medical treatment.

V. Specific Wishes

Where my intentions are clear, I expect my family, physicians, and Health Care Proxy to honor the directives outlined in this Living Will:

I do not desire any form of life-sustaining treatment, including CPR, if my condition is deemed terminal and irreversible, and my death is imminent.

Do not administer treatment that would only serve to artificially delay the moment of my death if I am diagnosed in a persistent vegetative state.

I prefer to receive maximum pain relief, even if it may hasten my death.

VIII. Revocation

I affirm my right to revoke this declaration at any time during my lifetime.
