Why don't donate to medical science and let them do research?

Or let young doctors practice slicing and dicing?

I'm sure many will prefer to finally meet ancestors in one piece rather in pieces...😅

The trouble is that they will return the remains to the family after it has been fully mutilated!

@RadX Yes, I remember this case.

Sea burial for me. Thank you. 

Sea burial is just the scattering of ashes at sea. It is not exactly a sea burial.

What I heard about sea burial when some one died onboard a ship is to slide the wrapped up body with some sinkers into the sea!

In Singapore, there is another option:

There will another one in Mandai.

Yeah lah. Of course is ashes.

Who the hell want their corpse to be nibbled on by fish and crabs. Lol

Feeding fishes is not a bad option! They are fattened for human consumption again!😚

I think the bodies will be cremated lah. Can read more here : https://medicine.nus.edu.sg/ant/BodyDonation/media.html

I was one of those who had attended anatomy lessons in NUS and appreciate that we were able to actually see real human bodies dissected. Grateful to those who had donated their bodies to teach us.

Where can I send my MIL to have the young docs chop her up?

[Jamesc]

OK I will send my MIL to NUS.

Is it ok if I send her when she can still walk

or must she be fully incapacitated?

From high protein source.😅

[Fitvip]

@Adrianli Thanks. So, in the end, there is a cremation and a proper send off involving the next of kin, unlike what I have read previously. 

[Jamesc]

Why burn to ashes and then throw in the sea?

We all like to eat big crabs and fishes right?

Why can't I just throw her whole body into the sea?
