Living Will Day

[Trilby]

Good job on the wills. BTW, the very cheapest way to go out (that I've found) is to donate your body to a medical school. When they are done with you they bear the cost of cremation and give the ashes back to the family. That's what I'm doing.

You know I thought about that, sort of. I will be donating organs for transplant, which is no suprise, since it's on my PA driver's license. I'm also ok with research. I just don't want my whole body being poked at by medical students. There is also the fact that my family would not have the closure of a 'real' funeral until they get the remains back.
