The publicity about the apparent misuses of LCP are upsetting to read about. I first heard of it a couple of years ago and thought it sounded like a good caring way of looking after someone who was dying but recent news reports give a very different picture.
How I feel now is that I would not want to be sedated - is it possible to refuse such medication in advance?
I'm not saying anyone else should feel this way of course.
Several members of my family are thinking about making Lasting Powers of Attorney and I wonder if it should go in there. I'm not ill or anything BTW.
