i feel for the family but you have to RESPECT THE WISHES OF THE INDIVIUAL.

its NAUSEAITING to listen to and read comments based on IGNORANCE by people WHO DONT KNOW SHIT about the case on either side.
You state this as if you are 100% sure you know the ins and outs of the case.
Did you read the court transcripts? ALL OF THEM?
Now...regardless of whether or not she told people this I find it kind of scary that since there is no documented proof from the woman herself that our courts can decide this based on simple testimony.
I have a livin will, and always filed it anytime I have had surgery done or have been admitted to a hospital etc.
This just shows how important it is to consider things in advance no matter how old you are.
