The END For @Pietroschek

Funeral of Your Dreams: https://www.theprose.com/post/771747/dying-times

Funeral Package: Fine, Wine

Ahhh… yes. I’ve got a funeral package for exactly that! The “Fine, Wine” service is for those who don’t want a big fuss and wish to go out on their own terms. Like wine aged to perfection, you wait until the most opportune time to sacrifice yourself.

Now, be aware that this will be no Jonestown. Here at The END, we don’t allow people to suffer. My Medical END Team will ensure a painless death. After you’ve said goodbye to your family, including your pets (because they are family here), all will raise a glass of a wine of your choosing as you give your Ta-Ta Toast. You will drink down the life-ending medication placed directly into your mouth by my personal and anonymous doctor, Dr. Death. She helps my customers to “Die With Pride”. If you are not a terminal patient, we will require you to take a psych evaluation to make sure you are making this decision of sound mind. We do not discriminate and support those who wish to take control of their death, all while trying to help you stay alive if you wish to do so. Here at The END, we only want to celebrate life and help all make their transition into death a happy occasion.

But, if it’s no matter to you, why not give of yourself to the brilliant scientists who will save the lives of tomorrow! This will require an “accidental” death, however, because suicides are not eligible for Full Body Donation. And if being on display isn’t for you, I have the “natural” option, which is very private. Once Dr. Death has pronounced you dead, we will place you directly into the earth, naked as the day you were born, in my secret, not-so-legal cemetery. This way, your decomposing body will contribute to the natural cycle of life.

No headstone is necessary, but if you wish to have one, our MEMENTO MORI stone would work nicely for you. There will be no name, only a number at the back of the stone which allows us to mark the location in which you’re buried. Only your most trusted persons will have access to this site, your unique number, and all will be required to sign an NDA to protect everyone involved.

Your family can come visit you anytime, gaze upon your secret tombstone, and remember that we ALL must die. But you, Pietroschek, chose to die like the finest of wine: with patience, purpose, and full of feel-good substance.

Thank you for choosing The END!

Love,

E <3

ATTENTION: the fictional “Die With Pride” part of my story above is based off a real practice called “Death With Dignity”. It is only legal in certain states and is NOT for those who are suicidal. This is a medical option for those who are terminal and suffering horrible deaths. Please, if anyone reading this is thinking of suicide, PLEASE reach out for help by dialing or texting 988. You have a story to be heard, and you matter.
