Accepting death as an inevitability is easier than you may think. After all, who doesn't realize they are eventually going to die? The problem lies in fully accepting death and in being comfortable in talking about dying with those we love. Approaching the sensitive issues surrounding death with family members and loved ones can be a loving way to help everyone prepare for the eventual death of a family member.

How sad that a man had so much but so little. Michael had money, recognition, fame and in the end died in debt. Taken away in a plain white van and covered in a pure white sheet. No more glamour, lights and crowds. Just the crowds that mourned him. He had controversy, led a life of loneliness, sensitivity and silence. He gave us music but he lived in a silent world with his own personal demons.

Like individuals, funeral s can be very different from one another. Sometimes it is thought that the funeral should reflect the life of the person that has passed on. When this is the thought you sometimes have different funerals. If your loved one was a big Star Trek fan then you may find yourself attending a Star Trek themed funeral, for example.

Being able to shop around. This may sound crass, but by pre-planning your funeral you can take some time to visit various funeral homes and find the place that suits you both financially as well in accommodations. Also, keep in mind that you do not have to purchase the casket and arrange the service at the same location.

One to two weeks prior to death, disorientation becomes more evident. Sleeping is more prevalent. My mother spent an increased amount of time sleeping and became uncommunicative, unresponsive, and difficult to arouse at times. This is in part was due to changes in the metabolism of the body. Our loved one processes his or her life with the eyes closed which is the reason for the increase of sleep. The patient can hear what we say so no negativity is accepted. He or she is preparing for their death in a quiet environment.



Eulogy (2004-Mature Audiences TV Rating) is a comedy that brings another dysfunctional family together for the funeral of a wayward patriarch. In this ending, the family takes the body in a casket on a rowboat to a pond.

Keep the footwear formal. Since you are taking the time to dress up for the funeral, don't stop with the footwear. Flip flops or Timberland boots are inappropriate shoes to wear to a funeral. Men should wear black or brown dress shoes and women should select shoes that are closed toed or peep toe. Their shoes should also be dark colored to keep in line with funeral etiquette.
