What is the difference between a LivingWill/Advance Medical Decision and an ordinary will (or Last Will & Testament)?
A Living Will/Advance Medical Decision is only concerned with medical treatment when you’re still alive. You cannot use it to communicate your wishes on any matters normally dealt with by an ordinary will, or Last Will & Testament. In other words, you cannot use it to determine who will inherit your property when you die, who will be your executors, or who will be guardians to your children.
