If my SN fails how do i prevent my parents putting me on a ventilator for life

[pennsive]

My parents are rich and have the means to keep me braindead for life or reliant on them…how do I prevent this. I know a DNR exists but how would I get it done without my parents finding out they are very attentive to my health because i have a chronic illness and they are my designated agents because most of the time i am bedridden and cannot even speak.

Look into the laws in your country on this. Maybe there is something you can do, legally written document, maybe there is nothing you can do.

Such scenario in case of SN seems unlikely, but not impossible.

You're probably right but im afraid my body will reject it and want to live, like I vomit it up or something

Imagine to be the one person to have some SN immunity like in zombie movies and they will make it into a mandatory vaccine for kids.

It only takes a few gram to die from SN, and people take multiple times that amount. You don't need to absorb everything.

I worry about a lot, but not this.

Living Will. I don't know how else you could do it. Whatever you do has to be legally enforceable. I don't know know how that plays into this "designated agent" status your parents have over you. I think you should confer with an attorney to find out what rights you have in your situation should you fall into the scenario you described (brain dead), but from "natural" causes, not ctb.

Yeah, it's called a living will, you can find templates for it online.

SN is easily reversible.
