This is the same for Canada also. Already a doctor-sister told me this....after all, she is one with the authority to phone/contact family member on health care issues/death for her patients. She is an emergency services doctor.My financial adviser told me I wanted a medical power of attorney and one for financial issues. Could be the same person but doesn't have to be. I guess it might differ depending on the state you live in. And I'm sure there are differences for folks who live in other countries.Last edited by shootingstar; 10-10-2012 at 07:37 PM.

Wow, all you lawyers who don't have a will make me feel great, thanks!
It depends on your situation. If you don't have any assets or children it's pretty simple.
When our daughter was a baby we got some software, I think it was called Family Lawyer but it was 18 years ago. Our situation was simple (no assets, 1 kid) so the software was sufficient for our needs. And a couple witnesses to sign. I forget, we might even have had it notarized. I sent one copy to my parents (designated guardians) and we have the other.
In a few months we won't even have guardianship issues.2009 Trek 7.2FX WSD, brooks Champion Flyer S, commuter bike
