I also would want to be DNR.

My grandfather suffered a series of strokes about a decade ago & my mother and aunts would not take him off life support. He was a big man, strong as a horse and to see him wasting away . . . I was pretty sure he wouldn't have wanted to be like that. He was so vibrant, he used to cook for 30 people & could probably add a bathroom to your house between courses. To see that vibrant man wasting away so much that his false teeth didn't fit anymore . . . it was tough.
