POA has no role in making of a will on behalf of some person. POA holder cannot make will on behalf of the executor of the POA. Will has to be made in person. If will is required to be registered, the husband will have to appear before the registrar and sign before him or put his signature as well as thumb impression. The wife can take him along with her on some transport. Any relative, if not the proposed beneficiary or the executor of will, can witness a will.

Joint WILL is not unknown phenomenon and is possible and valid.
Being confined to bed may not necessarily be state and stage of not being mentally sound to understand what is being disposed by WILL!
Keep min. 2 unshakable witnesses...
If possible let all legal heirs be witnesses...

IT shall be appropriate to get certification from medical specialist for being mentally sound and even witness of medical specialist and register the WILL............

Which personal law applies in this case..?
Or are you all Hindu?

A will may be executed jointly by wife and husband if they own joint property. Apply to the Sub Registrar concerned (where you residing) with medical certificate (for ill-health) and request to attend your resident to admit the Will. private attendance fee as per rules shall be paid.

In nut shell, registration of will is subject to the satisfaction of the Registrar about the mental soundness voluntary act of the bed written sick person.
