I have my DNR with my primary physician, Mayo Clinic Rochester , and places I frequent like for acupuncture and massage, and my refrigerator. I wear a road ID bracelet with access via code to all my wishes, contacts, and DNR. My nurse daughter does not encourage the DNR but understands my wishes. She believes there are too many reasons I would say resuscitate if I were conscious. For my wife, the DNR made things for her very easy when she decided not to be put on a respirator at Mayo Clinic Rochester. ICU staff became just like palliative care, or hospice care staff almost instantly. They even invited our dog to be put on her bed at that moment. That brought the greatest smile to her face.
