I won’t sign a DNR or an organ donor card.
I’ve signed a donor organ card.
A DNR makes sense when you’re terminally ill and heroic measures to save your life won’t add to the quality of your life - you can tell your doctor you want to die with dignity.
I watched my dad suffer in the last few weeks of his life in a coma dying and I wouldn’t wish that on any one. It affected me in ways I still don’t understand years later.
A DNR can take the burden off family and friends about your intentions if you’re dying by letting them know what you want and giving them peace of mind.
Its not for all circumstances. But in some situations a signed DNR can be the right thing to do.
