:confused: I don't know if exes still have rights as to what their ex spouse wanted in case of life support. My ex is very sick and on life support but his family there have put him on life support. My ex very adamently stated his wishes were not to be kept alive by machines. I am looking into his records to see if there is a will or not but if not, what can I do? Does his first wife have any rights in respect to their 3 children? He moved to Florida about 7 months ago and his mother would not tell any family here their whereabouts. We only know that he is in a hospital somewhere on life support, can we do anything?

No, exes have absolutely no rights regarding their ex spouses medical care and last wishes. Not as exes and not as the other parent of the children.
