Living Will Humor

The following allegedly true story is from Jerry Buchmeyer, et cetera -- Let It Be, 70 Tex. B.J. 913 (2007):

This marvelous contribution is from Gene Majors of San Marcos (Majors Law Firm, P.L.L.C.), who writes, "Will signings are often somber occasions, but not this one." Gene was a witness at a will signing ceremony, where his daughter — partner Carrie Majors — was explaining the living will to the client, "an attractive, early fifties woman."

Carrie said, "If you are terminal and you don’t want to be on life support, initial here."

With her pen paused over the page, the client asked, "Can I stay on life support until I’m a size 8?"
