Do you think it's narcissistic to plan what you want done with your body after you are gone?

Let me clarify my question...what I mean is, I have actually had alot of people tell me that they don't care what's done with their body because they will be dead...so, if someone wants something special done with their body or ashes, does that make them narcissistic?

No, it's common courtesy to the people you're leaving behind. It's horrible to have to make these kinds of decisions after losing someone.

Not at all. You are giving your loved ones one less decision to make at a very difficult time.

hahahaha, who came up with the word narcissistic to describe doing that? That is the last word that applies. MOST people would call it morbid.

Not in the slightest. How else are your family meant to know? My dad wants to be left to medical science - it's not like we'd have just done that if he hadn't told us.

Personally I wouldn't give a flying F--- What was done with the shell after I have left it.

Throw it to the dogs, feed it to the fish, whatever !.

Who Cares ?.
