Absolutely.

I remember a 90 something year old woman "coding".

I responded to the code with the ER doc while they were mid compressions. He asked when did they start compressions. The nurses stated 3:15. He said great, thats time of death. Good bye.

While we were walking down the hallway, he went on a rant about how there is a special place in hell for people who prolong life cruelly like that.

Not a day goes by where we're not trying to talk a family member from proceeding with surgery for their demented 90yo mother who fell and broke her hip.
