Honestly, I kind of wish I could have some kind of purpose for people like this after death. From what I gather, though, actually donating your body to something useful is fairly difficult with long wait lists and such. Which is a shame. I’d like to have some use after I’m gone. I have seriously considered trying to get myself to India to die and doing a sky burial like a few groups there do
My best friend donated their body to a local medical school when they had a terminal illness. It wasn’t that difficult, just filled out a form and told their doctor. We were told the bodies were mostly used for dissection practice for new students, tho there were no guarantees about how they’d be used. Afterwards they got a free cremation.
