Ensuring the genitals are fully embalmed

  • In this video embalmer/mortician Tracy tackles the sensitive topic of ensuring the genitals are embalmed - if you massage the rest of the body to circulate the blood and make way for the embalming fluid do you have to massage the private parts too? And does embalming the penis cause an erection?
    As usual, Tracy explains clearly how a complete embalm is ensured, in an honest and respectful manner - you'll probably be happy to know there is no graphic imagery to accompany this video.
    We have received a few questions on this topic so we hope this gives you the info needed to put your mind to rest.
    If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to send them in, although please be aware that we have many comments and questions to answer and while we are working through them, it may take us some time to get to yours. But we do enjoy and look forward to hearing from you.
    Until next time folks,
    Take care & stay safe,
    T&T xx

    Well this was very informative and I had never thought about it. I assumed when you inject the embalming fluid that it would go through all arteries and veins and I never thought about having to massage the tissue and muscles as well as injecting smaller areas separately. I can understand the mother’s thoughts about how her son was handled in the funeral home and the need to know everything. I hope this put her mind to ease. Thanks for sharing.

    Hello ladies! I have to admit, like Trish, I did not know that.
    I meant to tell you, going down the RUclips rabbit hole the other night, I was shocked to actually come across a video that showed parts of a body prep and embalm. It included closing the eyes and mouth, incising, locating and raising the vessels, placing the tubes in the vessels and a bit of the cavity work. It was fascinating to watch.

    I’d never have even thought about that question, but I found it really fascinating. I just assumed the fluid would just automatically fill up everywhere inside the body 😂 Here in the U.K. embalming is not the norm so I find it to be a weird thing to do to a body. I’m not sure I’d want to be embalmed 🤔 Thank you both for your videos & being so sensitive when answering. It must be very reassuring for those who are going through this process with their deceased loved ones.

    • @Areyoudyingtoknow
      @Areyoudyingtoknow  10 месяцев назад +2

      Hi, we don't want to be embalmed either.
      Yes you are right the fluid does go through the whole arterial system but often some areas of the body do not receive enough fluid to preserve as long as the other parts of the body that did receive enough. Theses areas are often the genital, feet, hands, fingers, nose, eyes and ears. This is were we need to do hypodermic work to add the extras fluid it didn't receive originally and especially the pressure point where the body has contacted with the table. So yes it's a long process but we don't what to sent someone home for a week and find out a few days later the body is starting to smell bad because we didn't bother injecting that foot that did not receive enough fluid so has started to decompose even though the rest of the body looks great.
      Thank you for your question take care 😊💚

    My son had a autopsy first before funeral home.But when I went to pay for funeral I saw my Son already casket the day before funeral.Shouldn’t he have been in refrigerations to preserve the body for viewing? By the end of service he was turning black,why? There gnats around him in the casket,why? I also thought there was smell about him also.So needless to say I was very upset that maybe he was not closed correctly during the embalming and smell from stuff used was escaping? Why turning black.I decided not to stand directly in front of casket at viewing,because I was afraid others would notice the smell and turning color.What went wrong? Thank you for reading this and answering.

    No to embalming for me or mine, i didn't know you had a choice when my dad died, and it wasn't offered to us, so he was embalmed sadly, on seeing this added to the bill, when we hadn't had a choice at arrangement, i knew if they didn't ask us in future, i would ask them and decline it, sometimes there's a need for it obviously but not for my parent's, my dad was buried in 9 days of dying, my mum was buried in 8 days of dying, and the only difference was my embalmed dad was rigid, my mum wasn't, which in a way was more upsetting despite us not wanting her embalmed because it was like she was asleep when i lifted her hand soft and movable, unlike my dads which was like stone, but still no embalming for me on my death just in a box and then burnt asap, and all undertakers if theres a choice to embalming then make sure its offered, for some its unnecessary so don't shy away from upsetting discussions.

      In Australia you can definitely choose not to be - as long as you are buried in a week to 9-10 days and kept in cold storage it should be ok - all depends on the circumstances around death though. ♥️

      The vid? We did it to help a mum of a young lad who was killed gain closure as she had been tortured by thoughts of what would have been done to her son, so yes, we thought it was justified :) and if you mean the 'is the process necessary" absolutely. If any part of the body is left with inadequate embalming it will, of course, decompose as normal, making the body smell terribly and there will be liquid and a whole mess for the viewing or service.

      Hi here in Queensland Australia we don't do many embalm's it's not always necessary. We do plenty of viewing without any embalming taken place. If the body is badly decomposed we can still embalm and this will get rid of the smell so the service can go ahead without the worries of any odours accruing.

    Wow! This was never even something that I thought about for.

    Does bring me to a question that is off topic. What happens when someone has chosen cremation, but might have had breast reconstruction & now has prosthetic implants or as those that don’t understand the procedure would refer to them “implants”? Let’s just say for the purpose of this question the individual has high cohesive gel prosthetic implants vs saline prosthetic implants. Would both styles be safe for cremation or would the high cohesive gel need to be removed?

    This may be a really stupid question, but if the body is in the casket and only half of the body is exposed for viewing, why bother with embalming the penis if it’s not even going to be seen? 🤔

    • @Areyoudyingtoknow
      @Areyoudyingtoknow  9 месяцев назад +2

      Not a stupid question. The reason the whole body needs to be thoroughly embalmed is because, if we were to leave any areas un-embalmed these areas will start to decompose and smell bad. Embalming is to preserve and sanitise the whole body not just parts. Thank you for your question take care 😊💚

  • @rachelyoung834
    @rachelyoung834 10 месяцев назад

    May I ask, do you have to be embalmed? As, this thought to me, makes me feel uneasy. I’m not even sure why it does. I think it’s because I have it in my head that I want eveything to be very simple and cheap when I die. I wouldn’t want an oak coffin or anything like that as I want to be cremated. So I wouldn’t want extra cost involved with being embalmed etc.

    • @Areyoudyingtoknow
      @Areyoudyingtoknow  10 месяцев назад

      Hi, no you do not have to be embalmed and you can certainly have a low cost service without the expense coffins or casket. I am opting for the cardboard box cheap. Here in Queensland Australia we don't embalm everyone, in fact 90% of my preparation are not embalmed. There is really no need to embalm everyone. So definitely make your family aware you don't want to be embalmed. Hope that helps take care 🤗💚💚
