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.
