When was the last time you saw a corpse?

Being an embalming technician I see corpses every day, in fact as I sit here typing this there is a corpse laying on the table behind me I am waiting for the pump to finish, then she will be washed down, dried and have her makeup and hair done then dressed and placed back in the frig till sunday service

Or... it has a desensitizing effect.

The true problem with America is that too many people want to live as if they're still in high school their entire life. I don't think showing them corpses is going to change that.

A man died painfully outside my hospital room last year when I had appendicitis. I could hear him screaming as he lost his life. I saw the corpse in the morning. I have no idea why I was exposed to this as it disturbs me slightly.v

A week ago today.

I work in a hospital, and was in a patient's room who had died. Of course, he was still hooked up to all the machines, so it was hard to tell. But I found out later that he had already died before I was there.

An open casket. The body had already been prepared for public viewing.

You are correct that people do not want their parents to die in their own home and hesitate to have a wake in their own home with the corpse present.

Last time I was at an open casket funeral... about 20 years ago. I always thought that practice was ghoulish. Seems like more people agree and keep coffins closed or cremate these days.

Does a run over deer count?

In a zombie movie on tv.

Hmm... interesting question! Hahahahah!

If you count skeletons, then it was about six hours ago (I work as an archaeologist).
