This is kind of gross...but dad found dead after 3 weeks.?

Question

This happened a while ago...but I always wondered what happens to someone...what stage was he at? I remember the smell..it was terrible. We found him 3 weeks into decomp. If anyone works for any kind of...lab or..morgue or anything that would have info on what happens to his body..

Don't find it gross, a lot of people wouldn't understand.

It was the saddest situation...he died alone..and we didn't find him until 3 weeks later. Please...I just want to know more.

Answer 1

It is nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed about.  Everything dies.  I am sorry for your loss.  What stage he was in would depend greatly on environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, parasites and decomposing agents around, etc.)  My advice would be to contact a specialist, this is a highly technical area and yahoo answers can not do justice to it.

Answer 2

i am not a doctor so i can't tell you what happened exactly.

even, maybe some doctors wouldn't be sure of what happened.

but i can tell you that death is a reality and not always we find answers. a lot of people died without we knowing what really happened. and if you tried to search for the reason and you didn't find any.........just accept the situation because you can't change it. i am just being too realistic
