Are cremated remains returned to family after Science Care is through with body? – Dove D.

A community member September 5, 2024

Yes, of course! I've known three people who became Whole Body Donors after death through Science Care. They return the cremated remains via USPS for absolutely free. They go the extra mile to make sure your loves one's cremation is just as professional and dignified as one that costs $1000. They also return the cremated remains to family much sooner than other companies with Whole Body Donation Programs. While some make families wait up to 6 months, Science Care have your loved ones ashes returned within 3-5 weeks. That's faster than most funeral homes that charge a fortune for basic cremation services.

I would like to donate my wife's body with NO funeral

I donated my friends body, per her wishes, in California. I am now living in Washington state. Do you serve this area? Kathleen Godbe – Kathleen G.

My wife, who is a retired nurse, wants to donate her body to science. She has an immune deficiency illness and has had many hospitalizations. Will Science Care honor her last wishes with this? – Gary A.

Science Care

Hello , I'm constantly sick/immune deficient & trying to plan for myself since my family recently experienced unexpected death/passing of my sibling & the costs/stress involved. Would Lyme disease, toxoplasmosis, & MRSA colonization rule my body out for donation? I don't get others sick around me, only I stay sick so I wouldn't consider these highly contagious for the immune competent. I would like to not leave my family with a bill should I succumb to illness & would need advice on rejecting autopsy by the state. Needgod.com Thank you. – Eliza S.

Are cremated remains returned after Science Care is complete with the body? – Dove D.
