Advocates Challenge Idaho Law That Voids Living Wills for Pregnant Women

In the state of Idaho, residents have the right to make a living will, also known as an advance directive. The living will gives people the chance to decide, while they’re still healthy, what they’d like to happen to them when they’re not. Usually, advance directives tell family members and medical caregivers what, if any, extreme measures the patient would like to receive to stay alive if she can no longer communicate her wishes.
