"They have agreed, but how do I know my wishes will be followed?"

Many times, though, when the end-of-life decisions are necessary, they must be made by people who do not know the patient's wishes.

Sometimes the choosing comes to you before you know your own wishes.

We made known our wishes, and they were reluctantly but promptly followed.

It gets complex, but it's good if someone knows your general wishes.

Remember, it is most important that you let your relatives know your wishes.

Now technology can keep people alive forever and without knowing the patients' wishes; we cannot provide our best care.

"I'll speak with the boy," he said eventually, "and let you know his wishes."

Through you, your father speaks, letting his people know his wishes.

But emergency medical crews may not know an accident victim's wishes.
