Yes, I think in the vast majority of cases, life is worth suffering through the process of rescucitation. What sucks is to have gone through it and died anyways, remaining aware to the end.

If mankind manages to stick around long enough, I expect that someday we will come up with ways of minimizing the suffering associated with dying so that dignity and comfort can be preserved.
