@sorry My aunt was donated to the hospital and we were not allowed to know any of their findings and they kept her body for two years and then gave us her ashes at the end. It would have been nice to know if he she had the cancer they said she had, I don’t believe she did. It was not for a law suit or anything like that, she wanted to die, I just would have liked to know for me and for her.
I know they are not doing autopsies, but if someone has a specific question about their loved one and it can be answered for free if you donate the body, that would probably get more donations. It might not be cause of death, but simply a pain they always had or some other health matter.
We did not have any service for my aunt, I don’t know if we possibly could have with her body present? I am fine that we did not have a service for her. This was a few years ago.
I know my great uncle donated his body to science (50 years ago) and my grandmother was very upset there was no body to bury.
It probably depends what organization is getting the body.
