Don’t you dare burn me! 🤣

Donate my organs and remember I love you.

@ChampagneCommunist , you won the thread

To DS1 and DD, look after DS2 but not at the sacrifice of your own lives. Find nice people to care for him, but make sure they are really nice.

There's money in the chess table

Oh @peachgreen thanks. Life is crap. Hold each other tightly and cry together and laugh together. It’s terrible for you to have to go through this but one light in the dark is that you have each other. (((Big hugs)))

Ladybird69 · 15/02/2021 22:59

Thank you @Emeraldshamrock xxx

SpudsandGravy · 15/02/2021 23:27

Be kind to animals.

Thank you @Ladybird69. I don't know what I'd do without her, she is my whole world. And so like her Daddy!

This thread has been reminding me of this book, For When I'm Gone www.rebeccaley.com/for-when-im-gone
it's been on my list but haven't read it yet!

Ds is not "difficult", he is autistic. Under no circumstances is he to ever go to his paternal grandmother.

TrojaninTroy · 16/02/2021 11:33

Love my child.

StrayGoose · 16/02/2021 22:45

Donate my organs and send me out to this tune from my fellow Canadian.

helpfulperson · 16/02/2021 22:49

Dont let anyone risk their life just to get my body back.

jessyjo2 · 16/02/2021 23:12

To always remember that trusting God and becoming a Christian is THE most important decision you can EVER make. Im in heaven now with God, a place with no pain or suffering but happiness and love forever.

Ladybird69 · 16/02/2021 23:27

@peachgreen love to you both xxx

This thread is powerful

I have two single friends that have a mutual pact to remove sex toys etc from one another’s homes before family arrive to pack up their personal belongings. Grin

DH and I have discussed cremation and ash scattering locations, plus not to bother repatriating our bodies to the UK at huge expense if one of us dies abroad. I haven’t thought about any other instructions.

When I was very ill in hospital and they didn't know if I would survive my request was look after the children and do what you think best with assets to set the dc up for their future.

@Justmuddlingalong

Vibrators. I shouldn't care because I'll be dead, but thinking about it while I'm still alive makes me cringe at the thought of one of my DSs finding it.
It happened to me and my brother. My Mum was in her sixties. It was a large black dildo. I still shudder at the memory.

Leaving aside the serious messages to my husband and son - a full playlist of show tunes for my funeral. NOT just a general message that I liked musicals because someone might pick shite like Cats and Phantom.
