My father died a couple of weeks ago. He was a despicable person, who I had no contact with for 50 years. He died alone and in penury.
The hospital where he died advertised for relatives, and I did (foolishly) contact them to see whether it was my father who was finally dead.
They want to know what to do with the body, but I am not interested, and neither are my brothers. Is there a legal obligation upon us to pay for anything?
I sound awful, people believe me if you knew the circumstances you would unanimously agree with me. If the hospital incinerator were big enough I have suggested they put the body in there, but I don't think they will.
Does anyone have any advice or knowledge of where I stand.
