    Haha, no. I want to enjoy myself...why would I have the old ball and chain and my cuckold? I mean come on...let's be realistic in this dream world.

    Attaboy!

    Another thing I would do if I knew I was going to die...buy TONS of expensive shit on credit!

    No, not the same.

    A DNR in a hospital setting just means that if/when the patient codes, the health-care workers don't make any attempts to revive him/her, such as CPR.

    My wife was an ICU nurse for 20 years, and she has countless stories of patients whose families kept them alive for selfish or misguided reasons while they suffered enormous pain. That said, she is not in favor of assisted suicide, even in cases like this.
