I live in Florida and had a feeding tube (PEG) inserted 3 weeks ago because I can no longer swallow anything liquid or solid due to cancer.

My life insuarnce is paid through August. Do I have to worry my wife can have a court order it's removal?

We are the same age, and I joined Free Republic just a month before you did. Are you battling cancer? I will include you in my daily Rosary prayers. God removes things from us (including life itself) so that we will need to go to Him for everything. I teach high school, and that thought is from the last thing we cover in the year, The Hound of Heaven (an poem by a Victorian English opium addict).

Have you made your wishes known via a Living Will?
