He hasn't asked to die. But he's got a DNR. Hmm.
Maybe I should check on that. He had a DNR at the assisted living facility.
I don't know if the hospital knows about the DNR.

His DNR - and Living Will and durable Power of Attorney, if he has them -
should have gone in the ambulance and/or already been on file at the hospital.
But if your wife did not already know of them, it shows the reason
prior discussions with (all) the family are so important.
