Man spent 6 days in the room with dead woman
A very emotional and unique event came to light of the Sioned Kingdom, that is, Britain, who gave a new thinking to the prevailing perception and traditions about death in society. Russell Davidson, who lives in Derby City, kept his body in his home six days after the death of his wife Vandi Davidson. Russell’s wife Wandy fought with cervical cancer for about ten years and eventually inhaled his last on April 21 last month. This story of Russell and Vandi is not only to fight a disease, but is an example of the spiritual and emotional connection that did not break even after death. “I didn’t want to send him to the morgue,” Russell Davidson said he refused to adopt the traditional process after his wife’s death. He believed that death is not a narrow thing, but it is also a phase of life that must be respectfully accepted. He said: “I didn’t want to send my wife to any mortuary, nor hand over to the funeral director. I wanted him to stay in our own home, in our own bedroom. I wanted to stay with her, as if I’ve always been.” Russell’s purpose behind this decision was not only emotional, but he wanted to challenge the fear and ambiguity over death in society. He said that people connect death with only fear and distance, while death is easily adopted, it can also be full of peace and love. Vandi, who struggled with the disease, got to know the unique way of treatment about Vandi’s 40th birthday in 2006 that he has cervical cancer. This news shook the whole family, but Russell and Vandi chose to rely on natural medicine and dietary improvement instead of traditional treatment. He denied chemotherapy and radiotherapy because they believed that the body could be cured in a natural way. He did research earlier and continued to seek all possible treatment at his level. It was his faith and associated, which kept vande alive for about ten years, even after 6 months predicted by doctors. In 2014, doctors told Wandy that he didn’t have much time left. After this, Russell and Wandy decided to tour Europe and cherish those moments of life, which may not be found in any normal life. In 2016, however, Wandy’s health began to deteriorate and had to return to Britain. The family wanted Vandi’s death not to be in hospital, but the family at home – and the same thing happened. Wandy breathed his last home, among his loved ones, and Russell did not make him disappear even after his death. Was it illegal? On Russell’s decision, some people wondered if it was legal to keep the body in the house for so many days? According to a British lawyer, it is not considered illegal until the body is handled properly and the funeral was delayed.
