I posted a DNR order when it became clear my father's condition could not improve if he was revived. I saw no point to prolonging his suffering if extending his life would not improve the quality of his existence. I was prepared to authorize all measures to keep him alive in every other circumstance but I also realized that life and death are ultimately in God's hands and if He wanted to heal my father He would have but He decided it was time for him to come home.

Probably not. This is why this situation is very frightening in the way that these parents are acting.
