If only that were legal…

Here’s something I’ve actually thought about. If I have some horrible, painful disease I know is going to kill me and euthanasia still isn’t legal here, I’m bringing my ass over to a country where it is. Then there’s no need to ship my body back. So who knows where I’ll be when I’m dead?

I’ve sort of fancied the idea of a Viking funeral…just pop me out to sea and let the ocean creatures feed off of what’s left of me. (Talk about giving back to the environment! 🙂

hysterical – and thought-provoking. this post could be recycled into a great article for the NY Times (not the Living section – maybe Escapes?)

FYI, the people living near the natural cemeteries can’t be buried there.

Because they’re not dead yet!

Good one, Phyllis! I just googled “natural burial” and found a bunch of stuff. The main org. in Canada was founded by a landscape architect – go figure! I saw a great film about natural burial a couple of years ago but now I can’t find it…sigh. Will let you know if I, er, unearth it.
