hey, that’s what I want! i have those specific conversations with my wife that i want to be composted, if it’s legal when and where i die. then hopefully my remains can be used to grow something. Like a tree (I have four or five I’m trying to narrow it down which I want) or some native pollinator friendly plants, a return my nitrogen to the soil kinda bullshit. i don’t want to be pumped full of noxious chemicals so i don’t rot in a wood box in a cement box i can handle the chemicals myself tyvm. failing that i want to be cremated and have my cremains scattered to a classic disco tune as one final joke to my family.
BUT
whatever brings her the most peace is what she should do. I’m gone, and her healing takes top priority.
at least I’m better than my younger sister, who wants a sky burial (left on a ledge to be eaten by birds until she is a skeleton), then wants to donate the skeleton to a medical school.
