It seems equally unlikely you would marry a man who would admit to wanting to take up with another woman and pull the plug on you soon after you drop into a coma, or that a man would marry a woman who'd admit that she'd rather he wipe her butt for all eternity than go on with his life long after she became a vegetable. So maybe you should just give mum your advance directive with a provision that it shall be unaffected by your subsequent marriage. And don't let hubby be listed as a beneficiary on any life insurance policy. You wouldn't want to display too much trust.

Man, talk about a cold not-quite-dead hand ...
In the unlikely event that I am married when/if I fall into a vegetative state, I don't think I want my husband to be celibate after the first few months. Unless he wants to be.

However, I will not be putting this in my directive, because I think it would upset my family.
