  1. Me & my family can relate to what Sharman experienced with her Mother's death. Sharman became a death doula after her Mom died.

    We still can't afford any family burial plots. We keep Dad's urn with his memorial altar at home.
    I got into death doula work in late 2023, months after Dad died.

    When you're poor it is super expensive to be sick & it's also expensive to die. Funeral industry is a racket. I had to take out a small loan to cover all of Dad's funeral/memorial services.
