Paper Introduction The decisions regarding end of life are quite personal and are based on one’s beliefs and values. Given that it is impossible to predict and foreseen all illnesses and the end of life, it is in order to imagine what is important for you. The necessary conversations focusing on the beliefs and wishes and reasons of making them will relieve the loved ones of psychological trauma. Detailed PlanI possibly believe that I will die in the hospital; rigged up in all manner of machines that hiss, flash and beep.
I believe I will be terrified at the point of my death and not knowing what is happening. I believe I will be pleading with deity whom I have not completely purposed my entire life to serve; with the promise of all manner of atonement for the neglect, just to save my body. The first thing after my death, a funeral memorial service should be arranged a day after my death. It should not take long because I never want my family and friends undergo the psychological stress and trauma of seeing my body.
My current priest should lead the mass and the function should be very brief being attended only by my family members, close friends and enemies. My body should not be viewed by anyone. The service should take place at the church. Speeches shall be conducted by my beloved father who is also my best friend. I want my enemies to be present as a sign that I forgave them before my death. (Funeralwise.Com 1)During the service, only my parents, uncle, aunty, siblings and two of my close friends should be given an opportunity to speak.
I expect that the names of the individuals to be listed in the obituary. The prepared obituary should list my past experiences and education. I expect beautiful pictures to be part of the obituary. I have never liked the idea of being buried underground after freezing it, making my body to decompose into rancid ooze. When I die, my body should be taken to the crematorium and my ashes thrown into the sea. This should be done in a sandy cove in the evening. I like cremation because it is very cheap compared to others.
I expect trained professionals to carry out the cremation with lose friends and family members to be present during the ceremony. I never expect my family to spend a lot of money during my burial. No casket should be prepared when the body will be transported to the crematorium. It should be wrapped by the hospital professionals when being taken to the crematorium. The family members should neither buy any clothing nor jewelry to accompany my body. Finally, before my asses are thrown into the deep sea, I expect my family members to play some of the nice hymns which I love.
Despite the fact that I did not serve God fully, I believe that the prayers after death will be a fulfilling and might result to earning forgiveness from Deity. Example of how my obituary in the newspaper will start;Henry, 92 of Houston Texas died on “-------“after long battle with skin cancer. Born in Italy in 1995, he travelled to the United States with the same wish as millions of others, a hope of a better life. He accomplished his dreams of being a career engineer. He will be remembered for supporting young people without asking a thing in return.
