I'm so freaking angry about the lack of consent thing!
I'm writing up an advance directive right away about not letting any trainee med students/EMTs/nurses etc. touch me. I hate med students the most though. Nurses are generally caring. I'm unsure of whether or not I can request that they not talk to me or look at me. I'll have to ask about that.
I'm also making it clear that I can refuse treatment no matter what. I don't care if I am dying.
I'd rather die than have med students touch me. So I am dying and there is no one but a medical student? I choose death thank you very much!
Oh and any doctor that doesn't respect my wishes can also f*ck off. I'll have to make it clear in my advance directive.
I know the courts uphold advance directions no matter how irrational they may sound and I do realize some of my requests sound a bit irrational. If anyone goes against my directives, they will get into big trouble.
I'm so freaking angry! I hate you!
I must make it crystal clear in my advance directive: I would rather die than have a med student practice on me.
Also no one is allowed to cut me open after I am dead. Not for autopsy or anything.
