DNR - Do Not Resuscitate

[william webster]

This common in Canada and the US but I'm told it is illegal here

My wife and I have it in conjunction with our wills..... no 'life on a respirator ' for us !!


Not allowed here, I'm told

Here’s the response to my question


Hello! So no, one 100% sure we don’t have anything alike and is 100% unlawful, as by the constitution of the country life protection and preservation of life cannot be repealed by a self-declaration or counterparts agreement

It makes sense since the country is heavily influenced by Catholicism and I don't think the church supports DNR (at least they didn't when I was in parochial school)

Not too sure now. My parents were extra Catholic and they both had it. I never asked but I have to suspect that my parents talked to a priest about it.

I know someone who has a doctorate in theology from a Roman Seminary. His thesis was about the use of "extraordinary means" to prolong life. According to him a DNR is totally permissible.

My brother, who died in October, had a DNR. It was a non-issue in a US hospital.

Well, the state of the health system makes a DNR superfluous 😲😲.

Ok,ok, only kidding......well half-kidding😆😆😆

My wife said she will wait a few days before taking me to the hospital to make sure I am dead so she doesn’t have to argue with them at the hospital.

WW what is the update on your neck ? Did you get it evaluated

 

[william webster]

Hopefully removal on Tuesday

I made a mistake going to the maxilofacial surgeon
I need a head/neck person
Took me off track for 10 days or so

Yeah, not legal.

At most clinics here it is a non-issue. It would be a miracle if they could resuscitate you and keep you alive.

Don't have insurance or run out of money and they won't resuscitate you
