minus-squarecorsicanguppy@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·2 days agoGet your living will done, my dude. If you don’t make your wishes known, you’ll traumatize some EMS who has to perform a very crunchy CPR on you. My dad, a former EMS, has a “no aerobics” DNR set up so he won’t be someone else’s trauma.
