What do you want to happen to your body after you die?

[notaboutangels]

I want a direct cremation. After that, my family can do whatever they want with the ashes. I also don't have anything specific when it comes to my funeral except that I don't want people to feel like they need to wear normal stuffy funeral clothing. My grandma had the same requests and I think I've decided I want the same for my funeral.

Direct cremation and then the urn drop-kicked into landfill.

I think the thought of giving back to nature would be kinda cool

In an ideal scenario: being cut into pieces and placed in the woods somewhere

But in reality: a crematorium and then put into an urn (which is mandatory here) and then straight into the trash

I would choose to be cremated, but of course it does not really matter what will happen to my body as I will not be alive at that point, so I will not be there to see it.

I used to have jumping as my top method for a chance for the fish to eat me.

Become an artificial reef.. be one with the ocean as substrate as a reef ball. link if you're confused . Though I suppose it won't matter since I won't be here to care..

I don't care

 

[KimKevorkian]

I'm going to have a taxidermist stuff me full of Jelly Bellys and hang me from a tree in Tijuana where all the schoolkids can beat me with sticks and get cavities. Failing that, cremation.

Thrown out of helicopter & into Hawaiian volcano.

Cremated before viewing and I hope the ashes planted for a tree than a headstone if the cemetery allows it. If not, scattered at sea or mountains.

Cremation no funeral. I did explain this to my parents and I believe they would respect that.

A regular funeral/celebration of life would be fine. Just remembering the good times.

I'd like to be cremated and used to plant a tree, I read a book where I first learned about this and ever since knew it's what I wanted. For a funeral I have a playlist of songs I want played and everyone has to listen. Aside from those two things anything else doesn't really matter since it's for the comfort of the living anyways. But I'd like to be one with nature and have my favorite music played one last time for me.

 

[ClownMe]

It doesn't really bother me, I won't be around to see it.

[OldWrldBlues]

wouldn't matter to me.

think the route im choosing to CTB wouldn't leave an opportunity to have an open casket

100% I'd like to be cremated and have my ashes pressed into the shape of a starfish for rebuilding the coral reefs.

If that isn't an option at the time, then I'd like to be donated to a body farm, which is a decomp research program.

Knowing my greedy narcissistic mother, she'll ignore my wishes and keep me in a jar on her shelf - a prisoner to her in death as I was in life.

Also I do not want a funeral of any kind. I know it will happen, but I don't know enough people to even fill a park bench let alone a room.

[myopybyproxy]

I want to be composted and used to grow a garden or tree.

 

[LONE WOLF.]

Cremation and my ashes scattered with the ashes of my 2 Dog's on a hill in a massive Dog park in the area l live!

 

[Al Cappella]

I want to be freeze-dried and propped up, holding a chips display, at my local grocer's…

 

[miserable_existance]

electrical cremation

 

[WearyHSP]

My deepest wish is to provide my body to science, or at least brain tissue. There's so little research done on my illness. At least I could die feeling useful and also potentially help others who suffer with an illness that's globally ignored.

Someone on this site gave me a link to a brain tissue organization. I'm afraid between the sn and the wait time to be found that it won't be a realistic option.
I'm pretty sure if I could go to Zurich, it would be an option. (sigh)

So... cremation. Just another box for my mother to figure out how to get rid of.

I want my ashes to be scattered in the forest.
