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 ...

Yeh, but what happens when the we-thought-she-was-a-vegetable wakes up and hubby's found a new schtup? How do you think Tom Hanks felt when he found his way back and Helen Hunt had "moved on"?
Make sure the insurance is in a trust for the benefit of the kids and that Hubby can't get any benefit unless he satisfies the trustee's moral compass.
