We had DNRs on the front door, the door to my Dad's bedroom and direct over his 
head on the bed. We waited three hours before reporting his death, and when the 
authorities came, the EMTs applied the paddles.

I pointed out the DNR and was told it was "Against our religious beliefs."

I was then threatened with arrest for not reporting it right away. My reply was 
that we wanted the DNR order observed and the EMTs demonstrated they would 
refuse to respect it.

My (later) lawyer said she wished I had been her client then -- the would have 
sued the pants off the EMTS and the Township.

Good luck with the DNR

Cheers,
Jim

PS Brookynites you can pick up the DNR at 36th Street.
