Everybody has their whole life, to prepare for the fact that everybody dies-- and the implications that follow therefrom. Funny how stressed we still get about it.
Anytime CPR is described as, "extended," it's a good predictor of poor outcome. Every culture has its death rituals; ours we call "resuscitation."
(Of course, resuscitation is not always futile, but futile resuscitation is often an ugly thing to watch.)
