Oh my thats something I'm sure bothered you for quite some time. Must of been gruesome. Did they warn anyone how bad it was befor hand?
No, no warnings and you had look closely to see. There was a lot of make up. She was also buried in a wedding dress. It was very macabre. It was what her mother wanted. Funerals are not my cup of tea and I prefer cremation.
Ugh. That's too bad. I think everyone should have their shit together and get an advance directive as well as their wishes for burial/cremation/death, etc. figured out ahead of time. I go back and forth with the burial vs. cremation thing.
I have a friend who is a trout fisherman. He wants to be buried in the bank of a stream so the fish can eat him. Kind of a complete the cycle sort of thing.
I think that's kind of cool, actually. I had a Hospice client last year that LOVED carnivorous plants, and bogs, and all sorts of strange plant life.
Yep, some of her ashes were spread out to the plants at a local nursery that she adored.....
