That’s one way to go out with a bang. Waka waka waka
My mother always told us that she had a sizeable amount of gold in her teeth, and it was to be salvaged. Ha. I even went to a dental school to try to get someone to remove the gold. The mortuary wouldn’t do it. Her personal dentist wanted $150 A TOOTH to take care of it. Yeah, right. That was more than the actual gold was worth. We were told that an unscrupulous crematory employee most likely pocketed the gold. I laughed. Momma definitely would have preferred to have someone STEAL the gold than to have it wasted by being ground up with the “cremains.”
So, good luck finding a dentist who will remove teeth with mercury fillings.
Logically, cremation makes sense, but the thought of it just creeps me out. And I read about that liquefication. Your body is essentially being turned into soup.
No thanks.
A plain box, even cardboard, with a marker over my grave that says, “She was here. She mattered, we loved her.” That will suit me fine.
