On my latest visit with my doctor we spoke about this. He was agreeable to signing one and so we did. It is on my refrigerator and I have informed people who need to know that I have one.

I think you may be talking about a POLST [physician's order for life sustaining treatment]? You can choose the level of care you want if you are not able to verbalize it. I also have one, keep a copy in my glove compartment in car if there is an accident. Also, my medical alert bracelet has DNR on it as a line item.
