When you die, what do you want done with your body?

I was thinking of donating some things…but the idea of me in someone else is a little hard to accept right now! so im not sure yet I dont know though…dont want to be burned, dont really want to be buried dont want to be fed to anything…lol I have no idea!

hah! I want my body to be put in like a little thing over ground..hmm I dont remeber the name but I want my body in one I dont like the thot of being burned of underground err I dont want my body to die..not scared of death but where my body goes ew

I’d like to be simply buried. That way my loved ones will still be able to visit me even when I no longer exist. For my essence shall always remain there.

um I don’t know like I wouldnt want to be burned yp cause I dont want to suffer even thou you dont feel anything its hard to explain but I dont want to be rotted up by bugs

I would like to have a natural burial. I’ve already discussed it with my boyfriend and parents.

With a natural burial, you are buried in a special area that is untouched. It is full of nature, streams trees etc. There are special “natural” cemeteries just for these burials. They wrap you in a biodegradable material or a biodegradable wooden coffin. Instead of an ugly tombstone or manmade monument that disrupts the Earth, you have a simple stick or stone marker. There is no suffering to the land due to your burial, and it’s much cheaper than other types of burials.

Your body is also not pumped with the insane amount of chemicals that regular burials give you. You are left to decompose naturally back into the Earth.

I would want my organs donated, and probaby be cremated.

It doesn’t really matter but, I’d hate to be buried, laying there in the coffin, 6 ft under ground and, suddenly, wake up. Someone may have forgotten to embomb me and I still had blood and my breathing was so shallow that everyone thought I was dead. Anyway, I wake up and realize where I am…in a coffin, buried 6 ft underground and that I’m going to have to die in there with magots crawling all over me (I hate bugs), scratching and clawing the sides of the coffin, and realizing that I’m not getting out. I think I’d rather be cremated, even though, Yikes! It’s going to burn. Oh! What a world, What a world!

I have always liked the idea of being buried inside a tomb of my own creation. seated on an immaculately carved chair- again , of my own creation. and surrounded by the tools and weapons I have used throughout my life. similar to the great warriors of old. with carved Egyptian hieroglyphs adorning the walls, and a curse against anyone that would plunder my tomb.

I either want to be cremated or donate my body somewhere.

Both me and my wife want cremation. Seems silly to take up space that could be used for other things for a casket and a monument. The thing is that our kids want us burried so they have a grave to visit. I was suprised one of the times I visited my parents. They never gave me the tour before but in our home town they went to the cemetary and showed me where their parents, aunts, uncles, siblings that already passed were burried. They picked up around the grave, brought or watered flowers, etc. To them having a grave to visit was reassuring so I’m beginning to reconsider my decision.

donate my organs and then cremation.

Cremation I suppose… it saves space…

I’d prefer the thought of cremation, but it doesn’t really matter. I won’t be around to care.

cremated

I dont like the fact of the body decaying…

I would like to be cremated ashes be blended with paint and have an artist do a painting of me so my family could really see me or just stick it in the basement if it creeps em out

just as long as its not given to you ya freak!!!
