When I am dying, I do not want to be hooked up to machines, I want them to just let me go.
When I die, I don't want to waste space in a cemetery. Why do that when my body can help science and so many more people? I see that as a good way to make use of a body.
I need to look more into donation to science because I hear about some sort of fees that the bereaved will have to pay. I don't want to do that to my loved ones. I think it is absolutely fucking retarded to pay for the dead, tombstones, grave site, and all that wastefulness. When my grandpa died years ago, he left quite some money to my mom and her siblings. My mom and my aunt especially spent a whole lot of it on nothing and could barely afford to pay for his [expensive] headstone. I think it's ridiculous. Cremation may be an option for me. In donating my body to science I can also have specified organs donated to wherever I choose. I may do that too, but I may not want to be an organ donor while I'm alive. People get in trouble doing that. Health specialists will most likely just let you die rather than giving you all the help you need just so they can take your organs for someone else in need. Now, a lot of people would not be happy with that, and I, would actually consider it a this moment. Mostly do to the fact that I don't want them to work so hard to keep me alive. If I must die, then I shall die. Death is inevitable, why fight it?
I know a lot of people would answer that question with your family, friends, loved ones. I know. But that's exactly my point. You have to accept that you are going to die just as much as you have to accept that those same people in your life are going to die. As a result, these people need to accept that you are going to die as well. There's no point fighting it. You've been fighting it since the day you were born. Live your life.
So I read more into the Body Farm at UT, the only costs my family will have to pay for is to arrange for the transportation of my body to the campus in Tennessee. Once you are over the 200 mile radius limit, transportation of the body is in the hands of the family. It sounds kind of funny to think of what businesses there are they solely transport human cadavers. Anyways, I am serious about this. I think I just may get a form to fill out.
Science is my life, why not make it a part of my death.
