What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? MN
Hope someone can help me. My husband at this is not able to make any decisions due to a coma. We are at odds with his family about treatment and long term options. At this time I do not have POA. I am trying to find out if can get POA or need guardianship. I was told even if I get POA that his family can get a POA for his healthcare. Is this true? As his wife would I not be the only person that should be able to obtain that? I am so worried that they will be able to make all his medical decisions and not me. Please does anyone have any answers? I am still saving for an attorney.
Thanks
