[quote=Anonymous]I find it selfish unless there are circumstances preventing them from carrying out their wishes. I get that after someone dies it doesn't really matter, but it just seems like bad karma or juju or something to disregard a deceased person's wishes. That said, I also understand why people do what they do. They are grieving and it brings them comfort. There was a lot of drama in my friend's family because their mom wanted to be buried next to her sister and mom and the plot was there and there was more than enough money to maintain it. But my friend's sister didn't live nearby and wanted her cremated so she could have some of her ashes. Their mom did not want to be cremated. I got it from her sister's POV. I see it where I work in the hospital too. Patients have advanced directives but families disregard them all the time when they are the ones making the decisions. [/quote]
