Ugh. Sorry for you both. (You too, blue viper, you posted when I previewed) What a fuckin year. I lost both of my grandmothers (101 & 96 years old) in the last two months of 2020. What are the odds? How do you collectively live that many years and die 3 weeks apart during the last 6 weeks of the year??? I’m not upset about them, they lived long, happy lives, it was their time, they didn’t suffer. And I’m not superstitious, but what a coincidence.
Also, my mom selected me as the one who gets to decide this DNR business someday. Yay.

My wife and MIL had to do the whole DNR thing for my FIL and then the hospital went against the instructions.

To give some more context: they worked on him for longer than the DNR specified and basically brought him back from the dead. It was 6 years ago and he's still kicking.Simple Torture wrote:My wife and MIL had to do the whole DNR thing for my FIL and then the hospital went against the instructions.

And no. I believe he was clinically dead for something like 25 minutes, and the DNR stated to stop reviving him if life signs were gone for 15. I am sure there would have been no way to sue for something that cut it so close.
