    Very clear standpoint and explanation. Helped me to approach this problem, so far I had been really uncomfortable discussing these matters with patients and family (I do orthopaedics, but elderly hip fracture patients often deteriorate).

    Good course. I find that too many caregivers think that DNR/I means do not care. Fluids and basic antibiotics are often withdrawn too soon. DNR does not mean do not care.

    Wow, All I got to say if I'm dying in the ICU, I want Dr. Seheult to do the coordination of my care and discussion with my family! This has to be one of the best discussions I have seen. Thank you very much. I wish I could give more than 5 stars.
