there is a culture that will keep their dead in their home for 5-10 years and they are treated like they are “sick” until a final resting ceremony is performed.

Woman travels the world, writing about how different cultures approach death. Explains the importance of being more involved in the process and talking with loved ones about what you want in your wake.
