My children since they were teenagers, have been fascinated by this one - as a family we updated our funeral list of songs constantly but in a jolly excited way. I don't really know about remains. I'd like to do the best thing for the environment. My parents were both cremated and are in a garden of remembrance with a rose marking their spot. I am afraid that even though I am in the age bracket to start thinking about it I don't have a lot of energy for it . Yes donation to science would be good.

I've thought about being an organ donor. But then a thought crossed my mind. What if doctors don't do the best to save my life when they know I'm a donor? What's stopping thing them from just saying "oh, we couldn't save him."?

Donate organs, donate whatever they want to fibromyalgia research (not sure what they need), if there's anything left donate that to whoever can use it.

The living can decide what they feel like doing to mark the occasion, but I don't want a bunch of money spent. Plant a tree or something if you absolutely must have a physical touchstone. mumbles something about melodramatic crap

my ashes are being scattered under trees i planted to help nature

I used to lean on the side of cremation...but as of late, I've decided to donate my remains to science.

A medical intern told me not to sign my organ donation card. They apparently hover like vultures before you take your last breath, taking intervention "liberties" that favour their interests, not yours.

Though I guess at that point it doesn't matter. I'm 62, so who wants my parts anyway? Fuck it, I'll get cremated.

Personally, I am an organ donor. I feel that it is the best way to give meaning to the end of my life by helping others to live a better and healthier life.

Organ donation of anything they will take, beyond that, recycled in some way would be food, fish food/fertilizer.

Buried in my back yard-au natural-no embalming crap.

I want to be cremated, my ashes put in my girl friends douche and let me in there one last time.
Seriously, I have willed my body to the medical school and it gives me reason to contemplate that I may do more good after I am dead than I ever did while living.

When I die
I want to be cremated
And my ashes put in the toilet
And all of my friends can pass by and pay their respects.......

I am an organ donor, so first I'd like any usable organs and tissues to go to whomever it can help. The rest, well if any research organization wants my brain or anything else that's left they are welcome to it!

If my remains need to be dealt with further, I suppose cremation, or whatever means they prefer is fine. I'm dead, I won't care.

I do hope I die with enough money that I can donate it and get something named after me. Maybe a tasteful plaque somewhere, haha.

I hope when I am dead, they will have enough time to harvest my organs and body parts for transplants (and they are in OK state at least lol); the rest can be cremated, and/or planted (I really like an idea of tree planting from the ashes). I don't want to be buried in the ground, because I think it's gross (go figure). I don't want a funeral service, and surely don't want a religious one.Really, though, I don't care too much. Now, the funerals are for the family, not for the dead, so I suppose, my wishes don't matter much here. If I can, I'd rather save someone's life when I die, If I may. If not - oh well.

As long as my body isn't taking up space in a cemetery, I really don't care.
Cremation is the most likely option though.
Most med schools will cremate the remains of those who donate their cadavers. They then send the cremains to whomever the decedent designated.
