ORIGINAL: slavequery Last night, He informed me He will be starting a form of brainwashing where any contact i will have with the outside world will be solely at His discretion. ok. That He is having papers drawn up with a lawyer that gives Him power of attorney over me. ok, still no problem here. He is also having papers drawn up giving all control over my physical being for the length of my natural life. ok, still no problem here. He explained to me, that in Canada, under the mental health laws, once these papers have been entered into court of law, they are final. Believe it or not, i still have no problem with this. But my query is; it there any of you out in CM land who is aware of just what Master is planning on doing? i have tried googling and can not seem to find much info. i just want to be well informed about what is about to happen to me. For those of you who wish to flame me or my Master, remember please that this is something i want, and am walking into willingly. Soon very soon over the next few months i will enter into complete servitude. So, what is it, exactly, that you are looking for from this post? You seem to have already made up your mind to do this. It sounds like there might be a little voice somewhere inside you saying, "help, i'm a little bit scared". If that's the case, then you need to have a very serious and frank discussion with your Master about these misgivings or, if the misgivings you are having are about your Master, then you need to have a serious discussion about this with someone else you trust. The fact of the matter is that "Guardianship" of an adult is a very serious matter that is dealt with in probate court (in the U.S., at least) and the court is the one that appoints the guardian and oversees the actions of the guardian. Power of Attorney, on the other hand, whether it is "Durable" or "Nondurable", is a legal document that is between you and the person you are granting PoA to and doesn't require a lawyer or any filing of papers in court, merely your two signatures and the signatures of witnesses, including a notary public. You can revoke the PoA anytime you want. So, it is really not any more "enforceable" than the verbal agreement that you have together, unless you become incapacitated and unable to speak for yourself. A general PoA doesn't cover medical treatment. For that, you will need a separate Medical Power of Attorney. The PoA is effective indefinitely, unless you specify a date for it to be terminated or until you revoke it. These are serious matters and you need to feel very comfortable and confident with this decision before you get yourself into something that you hadn't planned for. I just wonder why all these very extreme changes are being brought up by your Master now, after all of this time that you two have been together without talk of them previously. It seems like this is something that the two of you would have talked about long before you moved in with him, even if it was just talking in the "hypothetical" sense. Good luck to you.
