I have no idea what the laws are in fruity calif., but I have an ironclad DNR that nobody can dispute.

I'm nowhere near California, but my family ran into DNR troubles with my father about 15 years ago. He had a DNR on file with a local hospital from a prior stay, but when he was admitted into the ER and my mother was kept in the waiting room, he was put on a ventilator. When my mother protested, the ER doctor said his job was to save lives, not check the paperwork. Of course, back in those days, once on a ventilator, the hospital set policies and could keep the patient on a vent despite any family wishes, DNRs, medical POAs. Following this incident, a relative with cancer joked that they might have to have his DNR order tattooed to his chest.
