From time to time this subject comes up. Driving a car 80km every working day is a good reason to make arrangements for the worst.
I would simply like to give my body to science. Either students have a chance to practice on me or maybe someone invents a new method with my body and is able to help others that way.
My mother freaked out.
But I mean... A funeral costs a lot of money, even cremating is expensive. Looking after a grave costs time and money and I think you can remember a person without a trip to the graveyard. Put a pic on the shelf.
I have some pics of my father in my apartment, pics of a happy face. A pic my brother took of him the moment my brother lifted his cap when he had shaved his head, things like that.
Isn´t that better than a cold stone?
Ingo on the other hand wants to make a diamond out of me, this can be done in switzerland.
Ok, I can understand that, too (I only have to make sure they don´t make a blue diamond out of me!).
But I dunno. Really putting a "last will" on paper is like forcing to die. I know this is stupid, this is superstition.
But I am not the only one who feels like that. The other day they had that topic in Tim Allen´s show "Home Improvement", too.
Did you make a testament? Should I do it? I´m simply afraid of it!

Pauline and I made wills a number of years ago. We're not planning on leaving the planet anytime soon but if something should happen, we want our children to be looked after.
Thank you, Rodney. Yes, I should find the courage and simply do it. Nothing happened to you, so it seems to be safe.
Still, a freaking thought.
