Anatomical Gift Directive, Signing By Another Person
A donor who is physically incapable of writing his or her own signature may have another person sign the Anatomical Gift Directive on his or her behalf. When this is done, the other person actually writes the donor's signature on the document.

Any Anatomical Gift Directive that is signed in this manner must still have two subscribing witnesses. However, neither of these witnesses may be the same person who signed on behalf of the declarant.
