Absolutely horrific story this, they put DNR (do not resuscitate) on the man, without his or any of his famly being told?

''If an individual was physically preventing a doctor from administering life-saving treatment to a disabled relative, it would undoubtedly be a matter for the police, yet we see doctors taking this decision without consent or consultation regularly.
