Allowing a loved one die is a ethical question that only you and your loved ones can answer. Everybody should talk with those they care about and find out how they feel about end of life care. A Medical Durable power of Attorney (MDPOA) should be assigned prior to the end of life, so that a caregiver is allowed to carry out a loved ones wishes. Below is a link to the stages of Alzheimer's Disease, that may help you decide what is best for you and your loved ones. A living will should also be made so that the loved ones wishes are written out in a legal form.
