Do you need a reason to get a DNR?

Not everyone chooses to get one because they have a terminal or advanced illness. For example, spiritual and religious beliefs often play a role in peoples preferences. And some people simply dont want to be on life support at the end of their days, so they choose a DNR order to prevent that.
