"Family and friends at the house".

That's not the way to celebrate one's life.

There's got to be a better way.

Hi wil,

I think so too. I know I'd like the choice.

A friend has parents that are declining rapidly, heart, & dementia. Her dad was brilliant & her mom an actor.
The adult children are expending much of their time helping. They hired in home care, after the trial of an adult home failed.
But every day is a challenge, and its as good as it will ever be, there is NO easy answer & NO improvement in their future.

She loves her parents, she took off 6 weeks (unpaid) from work to help after her dad had a stroke.
We talk daily & agree their quality of life is gone & she would be grateful if their long goodbye would be shortened.

My kids know, don't keep me alive, let me go!
and I also have a paper that explains a cheap way to cremate me. Don't embalm me, a cardboard box to cremate me, a cookie jar to put my remains! No funeral!
Have family & friends to the house. Use my money for something useful & or fun, not to bury me.
