My dear mother in law died a few years ago after a 10 year battle with Alzheimers. She had to spend the last 2 weeks in a nursing home when her family were unable to care for her in her home. A few days before she died, she really looked a wreck. When they took her teeth out so she wouldn't choke on them and her hair really needed some attention by a hairdresser,no makeup....you get the picture. MIL was being cremated as to her wishes but the funeral home that we used "fixed" her up with a nice hairdo, a little makeup and her teeth in and even polished her nails a pale pink. I thanked them for doing this for us and to let us see her looking like an angel one last time. We will always have that vision with us rather than the one at the nursing home the night she died. Bless you for the work you do.
