I'm finally getting into Six Feet Under, and it makes me wonder if this has ever happened. Are there any morticians out there who can answer this for me?

I am a funeral director and personally, I could not prepare one of my loved ones. I might be too emotional. I would call upon one of my colleagues to take care of it. I know they would do a great job.

After the ambulance has suggested your loved ones member as deceased, they'd desire to touch the morgue because of the fact they are able to not basically circulate away the physique on the homestead. From the morgue, whichever funeral homestead you pick for the desire retrieve the physique from there and proceed with the funeral plans and the cost of each and everything with you.

Im not a mortician but usually they will have one of thier assosicates prepare the body. Not actually one of the decease family members.

I don't see why not. There is a long history in many cultures, including some in rural America, of the family bathing and preparing the body.

I'm studying mortuary sciences, and it's generally frowned upon to embalm a relative,but I don't think it's exactly against ethics.It' s the same principles as a nurse or doctor treating a family member.

I think they would because they could save a lot of money and prepare the body to look more natural.

I think that would be a very difficult thing. I mean if the deceased was a loved one. But I suppose it can be done.
