I understand what the law does, but I don't understand the role of the health care representative. If I'm reading it correctly, appointed health care representatives cannot authorize end-of-like treatment only if the patient objects to it? I'm not sure I'm reading this right.
Even if you have no idea, can anyone read 127.535 and 127.540 about representatives in the law below and help explain it to me? They are short sections and I would greatly appreciate your help.
Thank in advance!
