    This is an awful story. The woman was in hospice care when she was pronounced dead, so she wakes up in a funeral home only to know she’ll be back there soon. That’s a real psychological nightmare scenario.

    Man. You know it has to have happened at least once that a living person was embalmed anyway because the embalmer was just too busy to notice.

      One side benefit of embalming is that you never bury somebody alive. You’re definitely dead after embalming.
