Caitlin Doughty is the creator behind the KZfaq channel “Ask A Mortician” where she normalizes death and educates her audience about what happens after… well… you know. Being the brilliant mortician she is, I thought it would make a lot of sense for us to not react to a medical drama, but a death drama, so we watched HBO’s Six Feet Under. Despite my years of medical training and experience, there isn’t a lot I know about what happens to the human body after it dies, so Caitlin enlightened me to things such as what happens to prosthetics, the smells of a mortuary, and what happens to your various orifices.

@@johnpeace971 I hope you do know that average lifespan doesn't mean people died at that age. It means there were so many that died in childhood that the average got lowered. Most who lived to adulthood would be between 60 and 90 when they did back then too. Higher average lifespan just means not as many die young.

Their conversation about seeing random bodies vs someone you know is so real. When my boyfriend died, I spent some time with his body shortly after. And it was an incredibly eerie, but also heartbreaking experience. There's something about the way a dead person looks, particularly with the eyes. It was so uncannily sad to look into his eyes, and for the first time know that nobody is looking back at you. He didn't look asleep, he looked dead. He died with his eyes open wide. And I'll never get that image out of my head. But still, I don't regret it. I got to spend one last intimate moment with him.

My husband passed away very suddenly, unfortunately he was out of town in another State. I was in no shape to drive to the State where he died by myself. So, I never got to say goodbye or see him until the mortician brought him home for the funeral. God Bless.

My aunt died very recently and I immediately went back to work at the “body farm” at my school and the first donor I put out I actually sobbed because all I could think of was this was someone’s family that died just like my aunt. Luckily my anthropology teacher was there with me and told me it didn’t mean that I was “weak” but that I was feeling normal emotions that would pass. Seeing a dead body is always strange but I guess I had gone callused to it until I lost someone very close to me.

Doing the job you and your peers do is hard, and feeling sad once in a while is actually good. Humans are adaptable social creatures and as such we are usually afraid of death but can be trained to put those emotions aside. I think its entirely natural to feel sad and cry when someone close to you dies. Working with dead bodies or studying death... i dont think youd be able to stay sane unless you found a way to separate your feelings and your logical nature. I dont know what you do or what your job really entails but id strongly suggest having a professional to talk to. Not because you'll go crazy but rather so that you have a way of dealing with your own thoughts and dont get depressed

well, I can think of at least one subset of patients he's failed to do that with... of course, from his perspective, they were already sick and not complying with treatment, so he might just consider it a lost cause there. Because if he wanted to effectively prevent those people from becoming corpses, he'd tell them, "just exercise and eat healthy and try not to worry about your body size" (be pro-HAES) instead of assuming weight loss doesn't work for 95% of fat patients because they're ignorant, lazy, or have no willpower (even when his own guest at the time was like "no, it's systemic factors"). I don't know how many corpses he's created with that kind of mentality.

Before my Mother passed away, she left strict instructions on what was to be done. She didn't want to be embalmed and no open casket or church service. We respected her wishes, but when she did pass, my sisters and I washed her body with oils and water like they did long ago. The most intimate moment, taking one last care of her. Washed, dressed and did her hair one last time. We were able to respect her wishes and help our grieving at the same time.

Instead of having to remove pins to get the door off the pins are fixed and the door is lifted off the pins and then set on chairs to put the coffin on.

I really appreciate how the mortician lady addresses that it's okay not to react a certain expected way when faced with the death of a loved one. When my grandpa died, I was entirely unable to cry, yet I was grieving. As opposed to when my cat died, where I basically broke and couldn''t stop crying for 10 days, and was completely hysterical. When you love someone, your reaction to their passing can vary as much as the relationships themselves did, and that's okay. You're still grieving, just in your own way.

It's a great way to dip your toes into her world. (She has other books as well but like I said, if you are new to all of this, start there.)

She did a wonderful video, I think it was the first one I watched of her, about the funerary traditions of African American folks vs White folks here in America. She brought in historians and experts who actually were POC and had them talk about why things are done the way they are and how it started. I won't give any specifics here because you should watch the video but yeah really good.

Recently my cat died and when we found her rigor mortis has set in and the experience was very enlightening. Holding my cat before you can feel all the idiosyncrasies of life skin moving, lungs breathing, muscles flexing. Holding the corpse it was very stiff, all those little processes had become still. It kind of felt like an overly hard cushion is the best comparison I can find. There was a noticeable difference between alive and not the body I had found was very much in away not my cat even if it was her body. We buried her under a tree sapling in the backyard wrapped in a towel for a shroud. Something to note for people outside the death industry is we are very disconnected from what goes into laying a person or pet to rest and I really do feel that being part of that process did a lot to help me move on. Just my thoughts on what will hopefully be my closest experience with the difference of alive and not.

It really is wild how different and personal the grieving process is for people. I thought I was going to be a wreck when my grandmother passed away. I was sad and cried some but was holding together better than I expected. Then, a few weeks later, as I was alone and cleaning out her house I pulled out her night stand and a pile of tissues that had fallen behind it kind of tumbled out. I don't know what it was about this little reminder of when my grandmother was alive with a simple act of sitting in her bed and blowing her nose but I just broke down and started sobbing and couldn't stop. I had thought I was over the worst of it after her funeral but it didn't actually hit me and feel real until that moment.

Grief is weird. My friend Jeff has a really good way of describing it, "Grief is like a ball bouncing in a box and inside that box is a button that causes distress when it's hit. At first the ball is really big so it presses the button almost constantly. Over time the ball shrinks so it doesn't hit the button as much. Sometimes though it can hit that button out of nowhere and it feels just as raw as when that button was being pressed all the time."

Her novel "The smoke gets in your eyes" was an enlightening read and actually helped me get through my anatomy unit at university where we worked with human cadavers. I learned to be less afraid and see it as a part of the journey in life and I worked in a respectful, confident manner on my cadavers which were so kindly donated by the living before the end.

When my husband died, I was allowed to see him almost straight away, and he looked exactly the same, just paler. It looked like he was sleeping, and I swear it even looked to me like he was breathing. He was room temperature, not cold, but not his usual warmth. The next day he looked exactly the same, but he was extremely cold. They had moved him to a refrigerated part of the hospital. I was surprised he didn't look any different from the day before. I expected something to be different. After that I wasn't allowed to see him again and he was cremated after a week. I'm glad I got to spend some time with his body. If he had died of covid, I wouldn't have had the luxury. He wasn't the first person I saw dead (his mom had passed seven years earlier) but my entire life had been planned around his continued existence and I'm not done dealing with his abrupt removal from the rest of my life. He enjoyed both of you guys' channels. I remember seeing him watch this video back when it first came out and I'm glad I finally got around to watching it too.

We lost my beautiful grandma last year, she was my best friend -- my everything. She cut my cord when I was born and I was adamant I was going to be with her as she left this world. For 7 long days and nights I sat by her (only leaving her to go to the toilet or to shower), waiting for her to go. It was traumatic to see someone I loved go but I would do it again and again to know she wasn't alone (and she's no longer in pain). What Caitlin said about the body seeming like a shell was my reaction after she had passed. That lady who had now stopped breathing, and her heart stopped pumping was not my grandma anymore, she was a body. Her laugh, her smile, her voice were now figments only in my memories. I felt so guilty at the time that I felt so disconnected to her body but now, a year later I understand that it was my coping mechanism and in the long run helped me be at peace and grieve. Thank you for validating my feelings with that response -- I often wondered if something was wrong with me to feel that way...

My family always thinks I act strange why do that but just just the way I cope with it and say they're already gone that this is just a shell or prop

They appreciated we tried to still have fun with her while we had her, teasing each other and joking around.

She was such a vibrant soul in life. So the lack of her personality and the juxtaposition of the perfect face was so jarring to me I understand it can help for some to view the body but I dont ever want to go to an open casket funeral again. And mine will not be either, keep the pretty boxes, chemicals, and make up away. I just want to decompose naturally and return to nature

The part about seeing a dead relative being helpful in dealing with it; I absolutely agree. My mom was in a lot of mental and physical pain at the end of her life. She died suddenly (heartattack) and i never got any clear information about the fact that she actually was dead before i saw her dead body in the ER. Traumatic? Absolutely, one of the worst days of my life (and ive had a lot of those coming from a dificult family situation with a psycopathic and abusive dad) hands down. Being able to sit there and hold her hand, say goodbye and just feel relief that she wasnt in pain anymore... might sound wierd but it made me happy for her. Do i still miss her after 4 years of sorrow? Every single day. But at least i know she will never be in pain anymore. And i think the time after the fact, being able to see, touch and say goodbye to her body really helped me in understanding what happened.

I agree. Two of my deepest regrets are not being able to say goodbye to my grandfather and not getting to say goodbye to my sister. For grandpa we didn't have a funeral per se because it was the beginning of Covid and everyone was quarantined; he was cremated then as much of the family who could, I had to threaten to quit my job so I could fly out, got together a month or so later on his birthday to talk about him. For my sister, she had gone into hospice and only dad knew because she didn't want everyone to make a fuss over her. I found out a few hours after she passed that she was gone. When I told work they refused to let me take time off for her funeral, threatened to fire me if I did anything more than take that night's shift off, so I stayed here. Her husband has her ashes and none of us really know what he did with them. Dad just a few months ago got her marker finished.

But still to me she's actually broadened my mind on how i imagined morticians would be like. I would reccomend many storytelling videos of hers to get a sense of how respectful, educational and charming she is.

When my mother died, she was in a rehab facility recovering from many heart issues, and I was asked if I wanted to go "see her" and I actually declined. I didn't want her laying there in the bed after lots of CPR to be my final memory of her. I had seen her recently when we visited and we sat outside and she was smiling and enjoying the sunlight, and THAT is my final memory of her. I don't regret it for a second...

I wanted to remember the Grandma that wouldn't take no for an answer if she tried to feed you or give you money, the one whose eyes lit up like a child when I frosted an elephant onto her birthday cake.

I felt the same about my beloved grandmother, who I'd seen recently and visited often before she passed. I'd seen dead bodies of loved ones before, and they honestly horrify me because they no longer look like the person. I didn't want to see her dead body as my last memory of her, when I'd made sure to make lots of memories with her while she was living.

I agree when she said "dead should look dead" when my grandpa died they put so much makeup on him that he looks like a different person they wanted to make him look like he was alive but they just made him to a different person. I don't care if he wouldn't look good I want him to look like my grandpa I want to remember my grandpa, not the 4 pounds of makeup that's on his face

She speaks a lot about more natural burials in her videos and because of everything I learned from her KZfaq channel I now know I don't want to be embalmed and slathered with makeup when my time comes. It feels so unnatural to me and I don't want a viewing with open casket because if I hate being the center of attention in life, I certainly don't want to be in death. Natural burial all the way for me.
