H: What do you want to happen when you die? Do you want to be buried or to have them throw you into the ocean?
M: Well, I haven't given it a lot of thought. But I know I don't want to be thrown into the ocean. Maybe buried. Ya know, I saw this interesting thing about them putting you into a capsule and then you turn into a tree. That sounds interesting, don't you think?
H: What do you mean?
M: I mean they put the person into a capsule in a fetal position, with a seed of a tree on the top, and the tree uses you to help grow. So you become a part of that tree.
H: DON'T DO THAT. How would I know which tree it was? How could I visit you? (starts to cry)
M: That's definitely something you don't need to worry about for a LONG time. If you and your brother wouldn't like that, then I wouldn't do it.
H: Ok
...not sure why she was thinking about that.
