on this web I discovered how to personalize terran's death or my death how to put a more loving touch to a very hard subject
terran and I spoke of many things that last year sounds weird but i wish i had done so much different his death so sudden
left me shattered so nothing he wanted except being brought home was how he wanted
We had a plan at least I thought we did terran loved the idea
He wanted to be buried at Glendale Memorial Nature Preserve a green burial totaly natural where when he or I died we would
not be embalmed we would not be put in the morgue in a refridger it scared him and me to think of such things but we happened
on this site and terran just loved the idea the plan was to have megan or one of the girls drive down (since we did not have
an air conditioned car and the person had to be buried within 24/48 hours after death) terran would not be in a casket with
a cement liner he hated that thought he hated cemetaries ) Last xmas I made terran two blankets of his favorite power rangers
never did i think those blankets would be wrapped on him in death but they became his shroud since hated the blankets or
plastic ones we had seen on other children who died on tv or in the hosptial anyhow upon our death the girls would drive down
we would go to the local health department and get the permit to drive terran to glendale (you have to get a permit) and
the death papers as well all of us would drive to the preserve and with our own hands dig our grave and place him or I in
it making sure that the space next to him or I was also purchased we would bring live plants instead of dead plastic ones
and I would make his headstone or he mine we planned on planting a fruit tree at our heads the headstone would lie at the
base roots would fill our bodies as we returned to the earth as god intended terran loved the idea when the fruit came in
that we would eat the fruit when we visited and say "hey terran tastes good this year" we both loved this idea
when terran died nothign worked as we planned i was so upset and so shocked at his death and no one in miami ever heard
of home funeral and knew nothing of our rights being it was sunday when terran died he was taken by a local funeral home and
embalmed against our wishes it was told to us at the time if we let him go they promised to have him back in tampa that night
we were lied to by them and by the funeral home here in trinity when we arrived in the morning to see terran we were shocked
to find he was not there but alone in miami where we did not know since i had lost the card they gave me for two days my child
was god knows where and god knows what they did to him its one of the most upsetting parts of his death
Link to Glendale Nature Preserve where we had orginaly planed on all of us being
