DNR or Full Code for Resuscitation?

Looks like it could a problem either way:
With DNR: it could be ignored, even after going to all the trouble of posting it everywhere.
(So why bother?)
With CPR, etc: a person could be a lot worse-off afterward, which could be horrible -- very painful. (And for who-knows how many years.)

In California, my Kaiser insurance company is more than happy to give you a DNR to complete . It is a very personal decision. If you don't understand something, you need to talk to somebody you trust to explain it to you. It seems overwhelming, but it's not, you just have to get in, read it, and answer the questions. I'm 75 and haven't done mine yet. At this time, I want full code and want to be resuscitated. There are some things in the DNR that I probably won't want done to me, and those issues are also in the DNR.
