If you would go back and read all the previous posts, you will not find any comments from me suggesting that a person shouldn't need a DNR order.

I was mearly giving a few examples of why a non-institutionalized person might not want to be resusitated. If someone is out walking and doesn't want to be resusitated, they would absolutely need to have a DNR order with them.
