    A dying man had “do not resuscitate” tattooed on his chest. Doctors said it “produced more confusion than clarity.”http://nyti.ms/2AIWNyJ

        He did well to make sure his wishes were known. You don't go through that kind of trouble to leave it open for "interpretation".

        I’ll save you a click: they consulted an ethics expert who said it was deliberate enough to respect. They did; he died.

        A tattoo is not a legal DNR signed document.

        Resuscitate, may have gotten drunk or been drugged and predators had it tattoo on him. It has happened before at the Brasillia restaurant in St.. Louis off south grand and then they took the victim to TRX tattoo to have an F up tattoo tatted on him.

        Did they resuscitate him to ask what it meant?
