    A woman took her dead husband on a road trip for a few days, she didn't break any laws, should the police just p1ss off and leave her alone to do what she wants with the deceased, it's what he wanted (I guess).

    What would you like done with your body after death?

    What she did was weird but no harm.

    Couldn't give a monkey's what they do with me when I'm dead. Considering donating to university for dissection practice.

    Leave her alone, **** knows I have done strange things myself when in mourning for loved ones. Would not want them in the press.

    Is there not a cooling off period?

    The world is made up of all sorts and people can't all be as perfect as we think we are. I find the compulsion to sneer at eccentric people quite unappealing.


    As for when I go; I couldn't care one way or the other though I'm a great believer in garden composting...

    She should have been left alone. She probably should have arranged a mobile freezer or something though.


    I want mine donated for medical research or, failing that, cremated. I need to look into donation arrangements when I get a chance. Next of kin is fine with it as far as I know.

    Maybe she was using the Carpool Lane, like Dr. Nick Riviera

    As far as I know the medical schools are oversubscribed with cadaver donations; certainly TCD, and I think UCD is also.

    I'm pretty sure they've been turning down some offers, or at least are being more selective in which cadavers they accept.

    Yeah but i doubt if a corpse would eat much ice cream.

    How did your man die? This sounds like an interesting way of creating an alibi...
