Rick, you dumbass.
He's family, but he's always had a will of his own, with logic that is often working on "someone told me not to, so I'm going to do it now and more." He's also caught COVID at least once. We've joked in our house that the Grim Reaper refuses to take Rick, because it'd be too much trouble.
He's in New Mexico and is pretty much a walking Agatha Christie setup. "An old man who's a complete tool, but is in a wheelchair and has a bevy of health problems, also the person he cares about most is his equally ancient dog. He lives in the middle of nowhere, and his house (filled with small, valuable objects) is surrounded by his handmade traps."
Anyhow, so, he stopped eating/drinking for 6 days, and we don't know why. It seems he was still taking his medication during that time. He's now in the ICU, and we don't know what's going to happen next. My aunt has power of attorney now, and we don't know if he has a will made out or not, or any kind of death plan at all.
Papa was already stressed, this isn't going to help a jot.
