		<description><![CDATA[Maybe you&#8217;ve heard about Jade Goody even if you&#8217;re not from the UK.
She became famous in that country for appearing on the reality TV Show Big Brother and is now dying from cancer.

I&#8217;m mentioning this because I was struck by the similarity of her story and that of Jessica who started this web site.
They both had [...]]]></description>

This is a difficult question as it has both legal and moral implications.

I haven&#8217;t yet worked out where I want my remains to be left, but I have had to deal with my late wife&#8217;s requests.
She asked me to divide her ashes into 4 parts and leave them in 4 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It seems whenever someone famous dies the news starts with “Celebrity Xyz today lost their brave battle with [insert illness here]”.
Jessica was quite annoyed by this phrase.

Firstly she didn’t like being labeled “brave” simply because she was coping with a life threatening illness that she had no choice in. Once or twice I teased her [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This was a two day seminar, led by Judy Arpana, held in Sydney back in October 06.
Jess asked me to go on a two day course with her, “about dying”. I agreed, booked, and then tried not to think about it too much. Until suddenly I was there. Feeling a bit confronted and scared.

On one hand, I don&#8217;t want to write this post because it&#8217;s morbid and silly to. On the other hand, life is unpredictable, and if things do go not according to plan, I want to have said all that I will say here. Jason knows it&#8217;s here, and will post it if necessary.
