Advance Decision to Refuse

​

A.   REFUSAL OF TREATMENT

​

I request no CPR at ANY TIME.

​

I request no life sustaining treatments for :

​

 

1. Any type of dementia.

​

2. Brain Injury.

(eg stroke, coma,  minimally conscious states etc).

 

3. Diseases of the Central Nervous System (eg  MND, Parkinsons and Huntingtons Disease etc )

 

4. Terminal illness.

 

5. Other conditions which MIGHT result in the following -

 

Dependent on others for

washing, dressing etc. 

or

breathlessness,  

paralysis,

reduced mobility ,

speech or mental deficits,

incontinence etc.

​

So please don't ' save me'  -

it's the worst thing you could do !

​

​

 

B.   ABOVE APPLIES

 

If I can no longer make or communicate decisions about my medical treatment.

 

And I am unlikely to regain the ability to make those decisions.

 

I confirm the refusals apply even if my life is at risk or may be shortened as a result.

​

NB Life sustaining treatments rejected include

 

1. CPR,

​2. Artificial ventilation,

3. Antibiotics

4. Clinically assisted nutrition / hydration.

5. Any other treatments to sustain life.

​

​

C.  WHY THIS DECISION ?

 

I consider being dead - like being sleep -  quite pleasant.

 

So I prefer to be dead rather  than alive in any of the above situations .

 

I already have poor health and choose not to cope with worse.

 

This is a carefully considered decision.

 

Respiratory depressant effect of high dose opiates in pain relief are acknowledged and welcomed.
