However, I am VERY weary of it in cases of dementia. How do you really know they want to die?

This is why everyone should have a written will. In addition, make it well known to your spouse and close relatives of your wishes in case you become incapacitated. It's not a fun subject to think about and discuss but it's important.

I have made it very clear to my family that I do not want to be a vegetable and to put a DNR on me if I end up in that situation.
