because I have to think about it

[asterroc]

I'm leaning towards cremation. that way i could bury her ashes when I decide which friend of mine's property is most appropriate, since i don't have any myself and neither do my parents, or wait until i do have property a few years down the line, or scatter them somewhere nice, or just save them until I know what's right. funny thing is, i'd always joked I should get her stuffed and mounted, but i never would with her recent feather plucking - it's not the way she's supposed to look, the way she always looked.

Huh! That's cool too, but the purpose of donating my body would be to help people, which I'm not sure forensics does as directly as I'd like. I thought that donated bodies either went to scientific research or (much more often) to med schools for students.

I don't know if I could/would do a funeral for Peeper. It wouldn't have any meaning for her, and I don't think it'd affect my own healing process. If I were to do anything I'd want it *after* I'd recovered - which is why I'm leaning towards cremation, then I could save her remains until I was ready.
