This is what separates you from others on RUclips. Your empathy and care is genuine. You take the time to connect with us. The way you talk and explain things is awesome. It’s as if we’re all just sitting around drinking coffee and being casual. Thank you Kari 🙂
@@dennisconkin6628 i wish more morticians and ppl in this industry were more down to earth or like her kori thnaks for being so real it helps with the grieving process
The doctors told my Mother that my little sister would not live past the age of 2 years old. She lived to 9 years old and she was and still is a blessing in our life. The doctor also suggested that my sister be institutionalized. My Mother Thank God did not do that either. My sister held our family together for that 9 years she was on earth. I was closest in age to her. And she blessed my life in so many ways. ❤️
I have been following all of your videos. I have learned so much from you. But today, you have shown compassion and a tender heart for people. You're an amazing person Kari Northey
I would feel very relaxed and in a great place knowing Kari would embalm me. She has such a calming voice and demeanor. Yesturday I had a little surgery and I started hyperventilating on the table before the put me to sleep. One of the surgery nurses grabbed my hand, looked in my eyes and softly started singing to me. That's how I fell asleep. It's people like this nurse and Kari that make scary things not scary. God Bless You Kari for letting us have a peek in your life. Victor sweetheart you take your time on choosing when you can't do the pain anymore. God Bless You and Keep you as pain free as possible.
Thanks for the video A coworker a couple of years ago we had worked together for 15 years. When he was diagnosed with cancer he went quick. I learned the art of listening It would have been nice to hear from victor.
Hi Kari! You hit the nail right on the head with this video! My dad's dad was very Ill and my parents were getting ready for the worst. My grandpa had purchased a funeral plan but the funeral home was not in business anymore, nobody remembered where the plan was so we were Ll getting scared if something were to happen. We didn't know where to go. While we were looking into my grandpa's stuff, my dad got really sick and in last than 24 he was put on an induced comma because of a heart attack. I was the only one that was with my mom when she was told my dad had to go home on hospice care when ironically we were trying to get this care for my grandpa! My mother is a very strong woman but I had never seen her like this. She was in denial that my dad was on his final stages of heart failure. When I started getting involved I didn't know how to even start looking at all. I wish I had had all this info back at the time. I started googling and watching as many videos I could about death, morticians, embalming, and all that sort of stuff that was going to happen to my dad or grandpa. I felt I needed to know because I wanted to go into all these places with a "cold" head to be able to "negotiate" anything. Thank God we had secretly bought a funeral plan for my dad since I saw his health deteriorate. Everytime I mentioned this to him he complained I was trying to bury him ahead of time... I had seen how the previous funeral home took advantage of my parents when my grandma (dad's mom) died almost 18 yrs before. So I promised this would never happen to us again. I was fearing a 2for 1 deal in case my dad passed away first. Unfortunately my dad did go before his dad and it was one of the hardest things I have had to see. A 94 yr old crying for the loss of his son. I don't remember crying at all during the funeral or the planning like you said in other videos I had to disconnect emotions and got all those feelings like a year later. O would cry alot and get upset fairly easy. Know I know it was a normal thing I was starting to think I was going crazy! I am really interested in talking to you about doing a career change...
Beautiful story , I think this ties in with my job in hospice ... I would love to collaborate if you ever decide to have how hospice/dying and death process goes along and coincide
Well just a thought , as I work in the social work part of hospice we may be able to come up with a topic if there is any interest ? I look forward to seeing your upcoming hospice video ... I know your videos give me a lot of new perspectives as I deal with the many facets , the families , the patients and help direct to funeral care if needed on what or where to go ... as I am seeing a new insight with your videos it helps me do my job better as well
Naomi White I love hospice... I'm a CNA and I've worked in homes w hospice but when my mom was dying it was so different but hospice made it?? Better for lack of a better word .. I want to volunteer but have to wait a year .. thanks 4 all y'all do
Great video! I have had the honor of being with 3 people when they took their last breaths. My 11 year old daughter, my grandmother, and my Dad. It was SUCH a comfort to know EXACTLY
I was dad's caregiver and the night before he died he was great....talking eating laughing....had a great night...had a great breakfast in his bed....good day until I put him in bed at 3:30 pm....said what's the matter dad??? he said what the heck ya think....I said go to sleep...then deep sleep with the death slumber...I gave him permission to go home to the lord and a small tear in his eye and he passed on to God....you never know how the end will come and when.....his death was very peaceful....glad as his caregiver I was next to him as he left this world.....:)
Kari Northey I have been on a couple of occasions. The first time was my grandfather in 1991. My dad picked me up from school, or perhaps left right after the school bus dropped me off (I didn’t drive yet), but you’re right about the person waiting for someone to get there, as it happened in that case. When I got there, my mom told me to start playing Amazing Grace (his favorite hymn) on the organ (which I have now, but it had been my grandmother’s), and we sang it (a lot of family members, plus the pastor and his wife), and when we got to the last verse, was when he really started to go. He had gotten injured a couple of months previously, where he broke his hip, and later got pneumonia. The other time was my wife’s grandfather, and I felt an urge to go to the nursing home where he was at. He had been in the nursing home for several years, basically bedridden, but he had gotten worse in the weeks before it happened, but he had bounced back several times before (maybe trying to fight the inevitable-I don’t know too much of his history, although I know he was a farmer, but he might have been a boxer or maybe he was in the military at some point during his life, which might explain it.) I was a pallbearer for that funeral. I have also seen several other people that were in the dying process.
I can understand why Victor reached out for you. Your compassion and knowledge and how you’ve taught your viewers has been so good that you’ve earned a lot of people’s trust including mine as well. I know I’ve asked you questions and you have always gotten back with me and answered them all. I know when my time comes and hopefully a long time from now I can only hope to have you or someone as knowledgeable compassionate and caring as you to take care of me and my family. Your a Gem! Kari. Just keep doing what you do and the way you go about it. Mike M. Burton, MI.
Oops... Hit send too soon. It was a comfort to know EXACTLY what the last words were that they heard, which were words of love and thankfulness for their presence in my life. My daughter was born with severe disabilities and was only expected to live for 3 years. She loved for 11 and and FAR above expectations. I have no fear of death.
Kari, as a palliative care RN I guided patients and their families through the dying process to their preference, whether in the home, going to hospice or the hospital. I have always counselled when the situation arose, whether they had a strong faith or not, that the spirit/soul chooses it's time. It either waits for certain people to be present; others to be absent. A family member can be present at the bedside for days, or even weeks, but leave for 5 minutes to take a breather and..... In my own heart, I know it's entirely God's plan, but some people do not want to hear that. It has become a cliche, but it is the truth. Bless you and the calling you have honoured in your craft.
Wow what a powerful video. Victor, if you're out there I wish you as many happy moments as life can offer, and a peaceful passing. Kari, you are a wonderful friend. Please keep us updated.
It is so amazing that you care so much for people, not just those in your area. You have changed my view so much. Thank you! You are such a blessing🙏🏻💜
What a interesting story, it's just amazing what the human soul can do ! What a beautiful thing, that Victor, wanted to make sure that his last wishes be followed, so that his family doesn't have to be "burdened" by arranging his funeral. I certainly hope Victor's passing is as peaceful as possible, when his time comes, and that his family, finds comfort in his pre- planning. Thank you, Kari for sharing his odyssey with us..
@@KaritheMortician Kari is the death with dignity a thing now? I remember the first time I heard of it was a beautiful 28yr old 2yrs younger than me and terminal cancer and her husband and mother were there when she took some sort of medicine by mouth. I was shocked at first I was like what if she got better. But now I understand I'd want my husband and son there too and to go peacefully with no pain. Is this like what they do in jail tho? Like inject the person?
The wife of a pastor I am friends with is close to the end of her journey with cancer, and her only child is getting married in 6 weeks. The family desperately prays she can hang on until then. I shared my experience with my uncle who had incurable cancer for 5 years, and no one else we knew with this type of cancer lived longer than 18 months. The year prior to his passing the clinical trials were no longer effective, and we all got together his last summer. But he had planned a trip to Canada to see the fall colors that year, and he was bound and determined to go. Hospice was skeptical, but he did it. My aunt said she thinks that's why he hung on several more weeks, and passed a few weeks after the trip.
I love all your stories Kari, thank you for demistifying death and the industry. As funeral Directors we're here to help and I'm grateful you are sharing this with world. People need to hear this side of the industry. I can't wait to be a funeral director. I was able to choose an embalmer I knew , for my grandmother's funeral and she did a great job. I dressed and cosmetized her, It was an honor.
So great that you were there for Victor. I hope he has as much time with his family and friends as possible. That has to be the hardest part of your work- engaging with a client who is dying but not quite there yet. It must be a different sort of emotional connection.
I truly appreciate your videos Kari. Death is so mind boggling in my opinion for some they get the opportunity to prepare themselves,and then like in my case I had no warnings when I got that call 7 months ago that my dad had died. It’s been my experience with other family members the insight they have right before they pass away. And that’s not how it was with my dad. He didn’t give me anything. No insight,no closure. So I went from that phone call to walking into the funeral home and I was in complete and utter denial. It is so nice you were able to connect and be able to help someone go through there death process. If there was anything I could walk away with from my dad is he told me in a conversation we had months before that “Death is not the end” that for him “The mind and soul continues on” I guess I didn’t get in the end what I was hoping for. I wanted to be able to feel ok that he was gone and wherever he was his intuition was correct. There’s so many people that get the chance to spend time with family and friends and maybe be able to share that insight with others. That although there gone, there never really gone. I always get emotional when I think of the last 30 years and how most of it was wasted. And I wonder... 😭
Kari Northey I doubt I’ll ever understand this situation because he died from a massive heart attack and he was a heavy smoker. I was talking to a longtime friend today who went with me to the wake the church funeral the burial and the luncheon even she was baffled. I was there for her when her grandma went through a long process of death. That was the thing that really confused me he was 68 and she was 92. I’m afraid of the possibility of losing my mom. I’ll never be able to afford to have her buried in a decent casket she only has a $1500 life insurance policy I’m on SSI I’m too proud to ask for help.why she made me a beneficiary I’ll never figure out. When I finally called the funeral home my family has been using for years and told them who I was they gave me an estimate $4600-$6000 that the casket wouldn’t be esthetically pleasing basically cardboard and clothes ontop. I feel humiliated at the thought of it. I don’t want to spend money I don’t have. Both her parents have passed away. I remember a vlog you did about homes helping families and that they talk or gossip if it’s found out that the family really did have the money and the family gets blacklisted. If I end up doing it that way with a church viewing and funeral and buried all in one day does that mean I’m disrespectful and don’t truly love her? But I don’t want to have guilt. Anyway hope you have a great day. My package arrived today I wonder what goodies they sent me. I’m thinking about when I go back to school I enrolled in the funeral director program not too sure if I could handle embalming the thought of it gives me nightmares. Life goes on...
Wow Kari, the last time I commented on one of your videos, was two months ago on Valentines Day. I said, here`s wishing the prettiest funeral director in the land a very Happy Valentines Day!! I`m finally at a place where I can start getting caught up on all the videos you`ve posted since then :) As Iv`e mentioned from my very first post when I subscribed to your channel, your caring and compassion for all those around you, just come shining through in spades!! This video you posted exemplifies that!! That being said, Iv`e got some catching up to do in watching, and learning from your videos. Thanks so much for all you do Kari!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Sweet story. In all the worries and fears Victor must have at this stage of his illness you have given him a peace. The peace of knowing how will be caring for you is a great one. The night I lost my dad I don't think I could have stood it if I did not know it was my Uncle and cousin who would be coming to the hospital to take my dad and care for him. You have given this man and his family a great gift.
Great job Kari....wonderful story...will keep praying for Victor and I know his passing will affect you in a distinct way......brave man and like they say " it ain't over till its over " God bless you Kari for your gifts of compassion and caring....:)
Kari... You're such a compassionate and honest woman. Very admirable. Thank you for these videos. Great insight into a world most of us know little about. So if you're ever in Cincinnati, Holla! :)
God bless him in his journey.My husband and I have made our plans.We learned how important this is with Brian's passing.Your work to educate is a true blessing. Janie
My oldest sister has cancer. She is near the end stages, diagnosed last year... February 2019. When she was first told that it was terminal, I asked her if she had thought about going to the funeral home and making some decisions. She didn’t want to do that. If I’m ever in that position I think I will. I might change my mind if I’m in her shoes. But I truly believe that will be my decision. To me, it gives a little control when everything is so ‘out of control’.... 💔
I have no idea,how I stumbled across your channel. But, I am so grateful, I did! I have always had an extreme interest in Mortuary school What you do, is amazing! God Bless You, for your compassion!! The funeral director, for my parents, was AMAZING!! I LOVE JOE MCULLOUGH, OF BEAN FUNERAL HOME IN READING PA! MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT TO YOU AND ALL FUNERAL DIRECTORS! I have watched every one of your videos! And will continue!!!
I had noticed confusing comments from Victor on several videos. I'm glad that he was able to do some planning to help his family. I am thinking of u Victor. God bless.
You are very empathetic and loving. I hope you don't lose those virtues despite difficult followers. You are the Pro; you know what to do; thank goodness!
Wow, you are such a bright light ..I have a story but just not ready to tell it,, but Kari you are so special and help the living just as much as the passed.💕💕
Wow! I’m late seeing this. This is an amazing and touching story. What comes across from you more than anything else is your amazing compassion for people. Quite honestly, I don’t see that in a lot of funeral directors these days. Where I live most of the small, family owned funeral homes are really being forced into selling out to the large “corporate” funeral homes. There are very few left. And from my experience those are the very best to work with. Our family, going back several generations, used the same funeral home. Now it’s been bought out by a larger company. I grew up in a small town and everyone was very loyal to their family funeral home. There were only two. Now the other one owns “our” funeral home. It’s really hard for everyone to accept. I do take some comfort in knowing that my nephews’ step-mother is a funeral director for that company. I KNOW she treats people with dignity and kindness.
My thoughts exactly I would love to do this myself . And do this , with respect for my family. And that is what this is all about . Taking care of yourself and your family . Amen, to this young man !
This is a great story and I am very happy that Victor is still alive and pray that somehow he wins the battle. When I was 17 I was in a head on collision on my way to school and should have died by all medical accounts. I am 35 now and totally healthy. I believe this would make a great interview video to add to your channel either in person or via webcam. please send me a message back on what you think. Thanks Kari! By the way you have not done a bad video yet!
I think it’s wonderful that you care so much about people and truly go above and beyond the call of duty. I was wondering if your job ever takes a toll on your home life? I ask this in the nicest way possible!! I totally don’t want to sound mean or be to be to personal!! I just wondered how you balance home life and work life? Does your husband understand your job and what it means to help someone like Victor? I really hope this doesn’t sound terrible!!! 😊😊
Kari Northey, I think that is so wonderful! It makes things so much easier when your partner understands what you do and why you’re so passionate about it! Thank you for replying to our comments! It really does make us feel apart of what you’re doing! I love your videos and have learned so much! Thank you!!
Kari, I'm almost positive this same man has done a recent documentary with Real Stories here on RUclips! I've only watched a few minutes, but the similarities are very much there. The name is a tad different though. Idk. Just wanted to mention this!
@Daniel Garcia The episode I'm speaking of is not. Haven't watched it in months but I believe they were filming in LA, where he was living at the time. Real Stories does lots of stories from other countries!
Hi Kari. What a lovely, yet sad story. I noticed that u filmed this 3 yrs ago. Has Viktor, transitioned? It makes me very sad to hear abt those who have cancer, whether I know the person or not. This is bc, cancer is an equal opportunity killer. But I have to say that he had/has a lot of courage to visit a FH, and make his arrangements. I couldn't do that. I'd just leave it to my friend. Best I could bring myself to do, is write a letter, mail it to her & tell her not to open until I transition. U are a really caring & understanding person. This why I liked educating myself thru you. The way you explain things to your subscribers, kind of takes the sting out of death. Thank you.
My dad passed away not even 2 weeks from pancreatic cancer. So It kills me more since I have been talking to victor. And getting to know his story. I think of him everyday and get on here all the time!! Also kari your an amazing person! Honestly I get scared still get scared of death and I have no reason why.. I know I won't "feel" anything when I die but the thought now if I get buried to if I be on fire and cremated that just gives me so much anxiety. But watching your stuff has help. But I just don't know what I want one day considering I'm scared of being burned or go in the ground.
I also lost a son who was 26 weeks prematurely born but his brother (twin) survived. I mean seriously how do you grieve and be hopefully at the same time? We had him cremated but I don't and haven't looked at his ashes. He was the bigger twin weighing 2 pounds 7oz and the survival twin weighed 1 pound 5 oz. The names are Gabriel and Adam.
Adam survived and Gabriel passed away. They were born November 18. Gabriel coded 4 times and he was the 2 pounds 7 oz. He lived 19 hours after birth and passed on November 19 of 2014.
He's very delayed in speech so he needs speech therapy also he has had 4 bowel obstructions which has led to short gut syndrome. He's on a special formula to drink and he may need a G tube. When he finally came home from NICU he was on a year of O2. Then when he came home after the obstructions he came home on feeding tube through the nose. I had to learn to drop them down his nose. I hope he doesn't need anymore surgery. Ugh so scary but yet so stressful.
Hi kari its Jody I saw you a few months after your started you tube in love you and you gave me very good ideas for my passing and I know your ship busy but I wanted to say thank you and I would like for you too take care of me after I passed or at least meet you and your husband I watch you so much my family think im crazy to watch you
are you going to be embalmed by kari after you pass away you can request kari to care for you at kari's funeral home so she can put it in you file in the funeral home.
the answer depends on the situation i believe. personally, every time i hear this phrase i cringe because in my life its always been used by people choosing to take their life because they are diagnosed with some disease and would rather die while they are in better shape so they are no ta "burden" to their family. as a "disabled" person (i use a wheelchair) who loves her life this bothers me. the doctors always told my parents the worst case scenario and that i would never have quality of life. if i choose or they chose to believe the dr's i would not be here to see how wrong the doctors were. i dont think shes meaning the phrase this way, but it is what i think of every time i hear it. ill be curious her response. Side note, i am not judging what others decide to do, simply pointing out that what the dr's and others say your life wil lbe like after a diagnosis isnt always correct. So making a decision of suicide, euthanasia, or abortion isnt always the best choice. ill leave it at that lol
I work in childcare with several special needs children. Sometimes parents r told information from medical staff when their children r very young that they will not b able to walk, communicate, not good quality of life, etc and the child has turned out to b extremely mobile and happy. I think the strength of the spirit has a lot to do with it.
I think it’s a big comfort for people to know they have choices in a situation they have no control over. After watching four people pass away from cancer, I empathize. I would never want to die like that. I’d rather go to sleep comfortably with my family around me than be in that much pain, to literally wither away into nothing. Living in Florida my family owns a hair salon that’s 90 percent seniors. Hospice is done at home with a lot of patients until usually the last few days. I don’t want to lay in a bed for a year or however long, withering away in agonizing pain.
Hello Kari I've a couple of questions I loved the video u did with ur mom I just cried but to let u know my mom is a medical Examiner back home in Oxford England UK 56 miles NW of London and I asked her Y do you do this type of work she enjoys studying of the bones and she told me I'm the Voice for the Dead I thought you might wanted to know that and if u ever heard that reason the Voice for the Dead My other question is Y when the deased is lying in the casket u always see their hands crossed is their a reason for that and how do you keep them in place with out sliding down. My other question is u did a video can't remember the title was about but u said something to the effect of a pacemaker exploding well I have a heart Defibrillator implanted .My last question when my husband of 23 yrs was killed in the Iraqi war the funeral home here in Houston Tx USA was opened 24 hrs for viewing but their was a Marine 1at every Exit and 2 in front of the front doors the funeral Director and staff left out on the table Coffee and Pastries and they all went home. Next month October Halloween of all times will be my husband's 12yrs with the Good Lord. To this day I still miss him. Do you know any grieving communities were people have lost someone in the Military. Please let me know something soon 🙏 I'm scared of dying
Very tough position to be in.Having to rely on medical people to say you have x number of day's,hours left then commit to dying with dignity as the alternative could happen,more so if you have a family,friends that love you to bits...☹️
you do know sometimes a little goes a long way just you being asked shows just how much God trust you to handle people and to help them to the end is a blessing and help them plan to take the pain off their love ones is truly a gift. It makes the pain a little easy to bare. So you help more than you think.
I know this may sound crazy ..but I lost my Mom in August.to cancer ..I was at hospital and she couldnt eat solid food..but I remember her saying can you go get me a tuna sandwich in the cafeteria...now when I think back I feel ..did she do that as a selfless act of not wanting me to witness her pass...I know she knew how sensitive I was/Am.....
When my mother died at 80 January 20, 1996 we were in the hospital with her. She had been unresponsive then suddenly her eyes opened and she looked around at us then her head went back down on the pillow and all the instruments went flat and the nurse came in when she saw it out at the station. She wanted to be cremated and I imagine as she was a smoker and she did drink some her ashes may have been darker
My wife and I have already planned our funeral arrangements for ourselves and our special needs daughter. We are in pretty good shape but didn’t want our children to deal with the burden we selected cremation and already have our monument created with our names and birthdates. Hope we don’t have to use it anytime soon lol.
Kari, this and a prior video was about Victor. Was Victor one of the seven viewers who had questions that you said was like Jeopardy in that short close up video that I went bonkers over? You held up the list and I thought I saw his name. That wasn't that long ago.
I can understand why he felt that way.My husband and I have made our arrangements It was important to me to be cremated where my son was.Just a strange kind of bonding.❤
Fred Hill yes it certainly makes a difficult time less so in that you know you’re doing what they (the deceased) wants and also the financial strain element is removed/lessened.
Could you do a quick discussion one day about what funeral directors can do or usually do for people who are homeless or unclaimed by any family or just low income?
I am a little confused . Will you be traveling to California again when he passes to care for him ? I totally understand seeing someone like you online and reaching out for you to do the embalming etc .
ok kari i have been following you for a while now and i too have end of life facing....i live in florida and want my body to be transfered to michigan where i grew up and lived half of my life. can you give me steps what i should do here in florida first then could i be transferred thru a funeral home here? i am at a stand still on what my plans are. also i have a life insurance policy that is set aside for my funeral and i cant cash it in till i die..any suggestions??? thank you very much
Kari can you give us an update on Victor Daniel? I remember Drs had extended his time to possibly October. I havent seen him comment lately unless i missed it.
@Daniel Garcia Hello Daniel, I'm glad you are still with us. What kind of cancer do you have, if I may ask? And, have you tried alternative treatments? There are endless YT videos on many types of cancer that people have had and are now free of the disease. I know of one woman's daughter that had 5 different types of cancer and she used a variety of all natural treatment protocols and she is alive and well today after being told by her doctors to go home and plan her funeral after years of grueling chemo. She was exhausted and wanted to give up but her Mother wouldn't let her surrender to death! You should do a YT search on your particular cancer and check to see what others have found to be successful treatments. As long as there is breath in your body there is always hope! I'm praying for you and your family Daniel as are many others here. Don't give up and don't give in! This is a battle you can win!!! We can pray you through! I'm sending you blessings of health and well being Daniel... =)
@Daniel Garcia Hi Daniel, thanks for your reply. I found videos that relate to your situation and they are listed below. I know that a body that is highly acidic is a body that will develop and feed cancer, while a body that is PH Balanced will not feed or support cancer. You can buy PH Balance Test Strips at health food stores and take your own PH level test and then you can monitor your PH level as you change to a more healthy cancer fighting diet. Nutrition is key to a healthy body and the water you ingest is very important also. Water with any fluoride is not healthy for the human body. FYI, these videos can help you find your path to better health if you apply their knowledge to your life each day. Where there is the will to live, God made a way to live a better healthier life. Chemicals kill, nature heals and, "The leaves of the trees are for the healing of the nations." I wish you every blessing and I know there are many people that are praying for you and all that are dealing with cancer and other deadly diseases that have been conquered with diet, dedication and the will to live. God bless you and keep you, may His face shine upon you and may He grant you health and peace... Take care!!! ruclips.net/video/ddADeIsXrOw/видео.html ruclips.net/video/lXKvGuWLRbw/видео.html ruclips.net/video/Nc8SiGp8RRQ/видео.html ruclips.net/video/Ci_wA77zwAI/видео.html ruclips.net/video/hoFgNh_bIP0/видео.html ruclips.net/video/OfFfvDo80bU/видео.html ruclips.net/video/apyyLop78WY/видео.html ruclips.net/video/Xmj5jCKFgnM/видео.html ruclips.net/video/weShyOOxhNc/видео.html
@Daniel Garcia Hi Daniel! I'm glad I saw your reply before I go to bed. I hope you'll watch the videos I listed. They are loaded with great life saving information. You really should implement some protocols into your life that will raise your PH Balance and oxygenate your body. Cancer cannot live in a body that is PH Balanced and oxygenated. If you get rid of the acidic body, you will get rid of the cancer. Also, cut sugar out of your diet, cancer loves sugar! You can get PH Balance test strips at health food stores and test your progress as you go. There is a product called Transfer Factor Classic Formula and I know people that have used it on their dogs that had been sent home to die after loads of expensive chemo vet care and got rid of their cancer. It is a human supplement that has worked for people also with great results. I wish you all the best and a smooth road to recovery. Please keep us posted on your progress. Lots of people are keeping you in our prayers. God bless and keep you and your family Daniel!!!
This is what separates you from others on RUclips. Your empathy and care is genuine. You take the time to connect with us. The way you talk and explain things is awesome. It’s as if we’re all just sitting around drinking coffee and being casual. Thank you Kari 🙂
@@dennisconkin6628 i wish more morticians and ppl in this industry were more down to earth or like her kori thnaks for being so real it helps with the grieving process
@Robert Gardea since formaldehyde is a carcinogen she probly would also be not be alive and it probly would kill a living person
The doctors told my Mother that my little sister would not live past the age of 2 years old. She lived to 9 years old and she was and still is a blessing in our life. The doctor also suggested that my sister be institutionalized. My Mother Thank God did not do that either. My sister held our family together for that 9 years she was on earth. I was closest in age to her. And she blessed my life in so many ways. ❤️
Thank you for sharing!!
I have been following all of your videos. I have learned so much from you. But today, you have shown compassion and a tender heart for people. You're an amazing person Kari Northey
I would feel very relaxed and in a great place knowing Kari would embalm me. She has such a calming voice and demeanor. Yesturday I had a little surgery and I started hyperventilating on the table before the put me to sleep. One of the surgery nurses grabbed my hand, looked in my eyes and softly started singing to me. That's how I fell asleep. It's people like this nurse and Kari that make scary things not scary. God Bless You Kari for letting us have a peek in your life. Victor sweetheart you take your time on choosing when you can't do the pain anymore. God Bless You and Keep you as pain free as possible.
Victor/Daniel Kari is in Michigan and I'm in South Louisiana.
Thanks for the video
A coworker a couple of years ago we had worked together for 15 years. When he was diagnosed with cancer he went quick. I learned the art of listening
It would have been nice to hear from victor.
Hi Kari! You hit the nail right on the head with this video! My dad's dad was very Ill and my parents were getting ready for the worst. My grandpa had purchased a funeral plan but the funeral home was not in business anymore, nobody remembered where the plan was so we were Ll getting scared if something were to happen. We didn't know where to go. While we were looking into my grandpa's stuff, my dad got really sick and in last than 24 he was put on an induced comma because of a heart attack. I was the only one that was with my mom when she was told my dad had to go home on hospice care when ironically we were trying to get this care for my grandpa! My mother is a very strong woman but I had never seen her like this. She was in denial that my dad was on his final stages of heart failure. When I started getting involved I didn't know how to even start looking at all. I wish I had had all this info back at the time. I started googling and watching as many videos I could about death, morticians, embalming, and all that sort of stuff that was going to happen to my dad or grandpa. I felt I needed to know because I wanted to go into all these places with a "cold" head to be able to "negotiate" anything. Thank God we had secretly bought a funeral plan for my dad since I saw his health deteriorate. Everytime I mentioned this to him he complained I was trying to bury him ahead of time... I had seen how the previous funeral home took advantage of my parents when my grandma (dad's mom) died almost 18 yrs before. So I promised this would never happen to us again. I was fearing a 2for 1 deal in case my dad passed away first. Unfortunately my dad did go before his dad and it was one of the hardest things I have had to see. A 94 yr old crying for the loss of his son. I don't remember crying at all during the funeral or the planning like you said in other videos I had to disconnect emotions and got all those feelings like a year later. O would cry alot and get upset fairly easy. Know I know it was a normal thing I was starting to think I was going crazy! I am really interested in talking to you about doing a career change...
Thank you!
Beautiful story , I think this ties in with my job in hospice ... I would love to collaborate if you ever decide to have how hospice/dying and death process goes along and coincide
Well just a thought , as I work in the social work part of hospice we may be able to come up with a topic if there is any interest ? I look forward to seeing your upcoming hospice video ... I know your videos give me a lot of new perspectives as I deal with the many facets , the families , the patients and help direct to funeral care if needed on what or where to go ... as I am seeing a new insight with your videos it helps me do my job better as well
Naomi White I love hospice... I'm a CNA and I've worked in homes w hospice but when my mom was dying it was so different but hospice made it?? Better for lack of a better word .. I want to volunteer but have to wait a year .. thanks 4 all y'all do
You have such a good heart. Will pray that Victors last days are how he wants them to be and as painless as possible
Great video! I have had the honor of being with 3 people when they took their last breaths. My 11 year old daughter, my grandmother, and my Dad. It was SUCH a comfort to know EXACTLY
I was dad's caregiver and the night before he died he was great....talking eating laughing....had a great night...had a great breakfast in his bed....good day until I put him in bed at 3:30 pm....said what's the matter dad??? he said what the heck ya think....I said go to sleep...then deep sleep with the death slumber...I gave him permission to go home to the lord and a small tear in his eye and he passed on to God....you never know how the end will come and when.....his death was very peaceful....glad as his caregiver I was next to him as he left this world.....:)
Kari Northey I have been on a couple of occasions. The first time was my grandfather in 1991. My dad picked me up from school, or perhaps left right after the school bus dropped me off (I didn’t drive yet), but you’re right about the person waiting for someone to get there, as it happened in that case. When I got there, my mom told me to start playing Amazing Grace (his favorite hymn) on the organ (which I have now, but it had been my grandmother’s), and we sang it (a lot of family members, plus the pastor and his wife), and when we got to the last verse, was when he really started to go. He had gotten injured a couple of months previously, where he broke his hip, and later got pneumonia. The other time was my wife’s grandfather, and I felt an urge to go to the nursing home where he was at. He had been in the nursing home for several years, basically bedridden, but he had gotten worse in the weeks before it happened, but he had bounced back several times before (maybe trying to fight the inevitable-I don’t know too much of his history, although I know he was a farmer, but he might have been a boxer or maybe he was in the military at some point during his life, which might explain it.) I was a pallbearer for that funeral. I have also seen several other people that were in the dying process.
Great video my dad had brain cancer but he pulled through 3 years ago hope victor does well
That is great!!!!!
I can understand why Victor reached out for you. Your compassion and knowledge and how you’ve taught your viewers has been so good that you’ve earned a lot of people’s trust including mine as well. I know I’ve asked you questions and you have always gotten back with me and answered them all. I know when my time comes and hopefully a long time from now I can only hope to have you or someone as knowledgeable compassionate and caring as you to take care of me and my family. Your a Gem! Kari. Just keep doing what you do and the way you go about it. Mike M. Burton, MI.
Oops... Hit send too soon. It was a comfort to know EXACTLY what the last words were that they heard, which were words of love and thankfulness for their presence in my life. My daughter was born with severe disabilities and was only expected to live for 3 years. She loved for 11 and and FAR above expectations. I have no fear of death.
Kari, as a palliative care RN I guided patients and their families through the dying process to their preference, whether in the home, going to hospice or the hospital. I have always counselled when the situation arose, whether they had a strong faith or not, that the spirit/soul chooses it's time. It either waits for certain people to be present; others to be absent. A family member can be present at the bedside for days, or even weeks, but leave for 5 minutes to take a breather and..... In my own heart, I know it's entirely God's plan, but some people do not want to hear that. It has become a cliche, but it is the truth. Bless you and the calling you have honoured in your craft.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for watching.
Thanks for all your videos Kari, love watching them!
Wow what a powerful video. Victor, if you're out there I wish you as many happy moments as life can offer, and a peaceful passing. Kari, you are a wonderful friend. Please keep us updated.
What a beautiful story and awesome video
It is so amazing that you care so much for people, not just those in your area. You have changed my view so much. Thank you! You are such a blessing🙏🏻💜
What a interesting story, it's just amazing what the human soul can do ! What a beautiful thing, that Victor, wanted to make sure that his last wishes be followed, so that his family doesn't have to be "burdened" by arranging his funeral.
I certainly hope Victor's passing is as peaceful as possible, when his time comes, and that his family, finds comfort in his pre- planning. Thank you, Kari for sharing his odyssey with us..
@@KaritheMortician Kari is the death with dignity a thing now? I remember the first time I heard of it was a beautiful 28yr old 2yrs younger than me and terminal cancer and her husband and mother were there when she took some sort of medicine by mouth. I was shocked at first I was like what if she got better. But now I understand I'd want my husband and son there too and to go peacefully with no pain. Is this like what they do in jail tho? Like inject the person?
Wonderful video. Thanks you for sharing Kari. Victor, if you see this, I am thinking of you and your family.
What a beautiful story. You would be an amazing social worker and helping people with grief❤️
The wife of a pastor I am friends with is close to the end of her journey with cancer, and her only child is getting married in 6 weeks. The family desperately prays she can hang on until then. I shared my experience with my uncle who had incurable cancer for 5 years, and no one else we knew with this type of cancer lived longer than 18 months. The year prior to his passing the clinical trials were no longer effective, and we all got together his last summer. But he had planned a trip to Canada to see the fall colors that year, and he was bound and determined to go. Hospice was skeptical, but he did it. My aunt said she thinks that's why he hung on several more weeks, and passed a few weeks after the trip.
How caring you are. Touching story. Praying for Victor.
I just enjoy you. You have such a sweet and genuine spirit.
I love all your stories Kari, thank you for demistifying death and the industry. As funeral Directors we're here to help and I'm grateful you are sharing this with world. People need to hear this side of the industry. I can't wait to be a funeral director.
I was able to choose an embalmer I knew , for my grandmother's funeral and she did a great job. I dressed and cosmetized her, It was an honor.
Thank you for sharing this experience. Victor sounds like a very brave and courageous man. Kari, you are wonderful.!
What a caring person you are. I am so honoured for you to share this experience. Thank you.
Thank you so much!
So great that you were there for Victor. I hope he has as much time with his family and friends as possible. That has to be the hardest part of your work- engaging with a client who is dying but not quite there yet. It must be a different sort of emotional connection.
I truly appreciate your videos Kari. Death is so mind boggling in my opinion for some they get the opportunity to prepare themselves,and then like in my case I had no warnings when I got that call 7 months ago that my dad had died. It’s been my experience with other family members the insight they have right before they pass away. And that’s not how it was with my dad. He didn’t give me anything. No insight,no closure. So I went from that phone call to walking into the funeral home and I was in complete and utter denial. It is so nice you were able to connect and be able to help someone go through there death process. If there was anything I could walk away with from my dad is he told me in a conversation we had months before that “Death is not the end” that for him “The mind and soul continues on” I guess I didn’t get in the end what I was hoping for. I wanted to be able to feel ok that he was gone and wherever he was his intuition was correct. There’s so many people that get the chance to spend time with family and friends and maybe be able to share that insight with others. That although there gone, there never really gone. I always get emotional when I think of the last 30 years and how most of it was wasted. And I wonder... 😭
Kari Northey I doubt I’ll ever understand this situation because he died from a massive heart attack and he was a heavy smoker. I was talking to a longtime friend today who went with me to the wake the church funeral the burial and the luncheon even she was baffled. I was there for her when her grandma went through a long process of death. That was the thing that really confused me he was 68 and she was 92. I’m afraid of the possibility of losing my mom. I’ll never be able to afford to have her buried in a decent casket she only has a $1500 life insurance policy I’m on SSI I’m too proud to ask for help.why she made me a beneficiary I’ll never figure out. When I finally called the funeral home my family has been using for years and told them who I was they gave me an estimate $4600-$6000 that the casket wouldn’t be esthetically pleasing basically cardboard and clothes ontop. I feel humiliated at the thought of it. I don’t want to spend money I don’t have. Both her parents have passed away. I remember a vlog you did about homes helping families and that they talk or gossip if it’s found out that the family really did have the money and the family gets blacklisted. If I end up doing it that way with a church viewing and funeral and buried all in one day does that mean I’m disrespectful and don’t truly love her? But I don’t want to have guilt. Anyway hope you have a great day. My package arrived today I wonder what goodies they sent me. I’m thinking about when I go back to school I enrolled in the funeral director program not too sure if I could handle embalming the thought of it gives me nightmares. Life goes on...
Wow Kari, the last time I commented on one of your videos, was two months ago on Valentines Day. I said, here`s wishing the prettiest funeral director in the land a very Happy Valentines Day!! I`m finally at a place where I can start getting caught up on all the videos you`ve posted since then :) As Iv`e mentioned from my very first post when I subscribed to your channel, your caring and compassion for all those around you, just come shining through in spades!! This video you posted exemplifies that!! That being said, Iv`e got some catching up to do in watching, and learning from your videos. Thanks so much for all you do Kari!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Kari, watching in August 2019. Is Victor still with us? It's been some time and I'm really wondering...
Sweet story. In all the worries and fears Victor must have at this stage of his illness you have given him a peace. The peace of knowing how will be caring for you is a great one. The night I lost my dad I don't think I could have stood it if I did not know it was my Uncle and cousin who would be coming to the hospital to take my dad and care for him. You have given this man and his family a great gift.
Beautiful story. Thank you so much for all you do
Great job Kari....wonderful story...will keep praying for Victor and I know his passing will affect you in a distinct way......brave man and like they say " it ain't over till its over " God bless you Kari for your gifts of compassion and caring....:)
What a beautiful story. It shows how much you touch people xx
My husband passed just a week ago. I'm glad I talked things over with the funeral director, it made things alot easier.
He's had alot of heart issues for awhile, and we both have chosen cremation. Today I spread some of his ashes at his old place of work
Makes total sense Kari. You are a blessing.
Kari... You're such a compassionate and honest woman. Very admirable. Thank you for these videos. Great insight into a world most of us know little about. So if you're ever in Cincinnati, Holla! :)
God bless him in his journey.My husband and I have made our plans.We learned how important this is with Brian's passing.Your work to educate is a true blessing. Janie
My oldest sister has cancer. She is near the end stages, diagnosed last year... February 2019. When she was first told that it was terminal, I asked her if she had thought about going to the funeral home and making some decisions. She didn’t want to do that. If I’m ever in that position I think I will. I might change my mind if I’m in her shoes. But I truly believe that will be my decision. To me, it gives a little control when everything is so ‘out of control’.... 💔
Beautiful story. So glad you could help him.
I have no idea,how I stumbled across your channel. But, I am so grateful, I did! I have always had an extreme interest in Mortuary school
What you do, is amazing! God Bless You, for your compassion!! The funeral director, for my parents, was AMAZING!! I LOVE JOE MCULLOUGH, OF BEAN FUNERAL HOME IN READING PA! MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT TO YOU AND ALL FUNERAL DIRECTORS! I have watched every one of your videos! And will continue!!!
Kari... you are so sweet, comforting, genuine. I could listen to you talk all day, even if it was all jiberish!!! What a beautiful person you are🌷🌹🌻🌻💐
I had noticed confusing comments from Victor on several videos. I'm glad that he was able to do some planning to help his family. I am thinking of u Victor. God bless.
You are very empathetic and loving. I hope you don't lose those virtues despite difficult followers. You are the Pro; you know what to do; thank goodness!
Wow, you are such a bright light ..I have a story but just not ready to tell it,, but Kari you are so special and help the living just as much as the passed.💕💕
Very cool video. It’s nice to hear that he’s doing ok.
Wow! I’m late seeing this. This is an amazing and touching story. What comes across from you more than anything else is your amazing compassion for people. Quite honestly, I don’t see that in a lot of funeral directors these days. Where I live most of the small, family owned funeral homes are really being forced into selling out to the large “corporate” funeral homes. There are very few left. And from my experience those are the very best to work with. Our family, going back several generations, used the same funeral home. Now it’s been bought out by a larger company. I grew up in a small town and everyone was very loyal to their family funeral home. There were only two. Now the other one owns “our” funeral home. It’s really hard for everyone to accept. I do take some comfort in knowing that my nephews’ step-mother is a funeral director for that company. I KNOW she treats people with dignity and kindness.
Keep us posted!
You are such a blessing! 💝
Wow what a story I hope I can be that way about my last days great vid
My thoughts exactly I would love to do this myself . And do this , with respect for my family. And that is what this is all about . Taking care of yourself and your family . Amen, to this young man !
May God be with Victor on this final journey.🙏🏻❤️
This is a great story and I am very happy that Victor is still alive and pray that somehow he wins the battle. When I was 17 I was in a head on collision on my way to school and should have died by all medical accounts. I am 35 now and totally healthy. I believe this would make a great interview video to add to your channel either in person or via webcam. please send me a message back on what you think. Thanks Kari! By the way you have not done a bad video yet!
about 30 minutes south of the Atlanta Georgia Airport
Kari, I'm going to steal a comment from this video because I relate to it so much: "I just enjoy you. You have such a sweet and genuine spirit."
Phenomenal story! Way to keep fighting Victor! Keep kicking ass!
Beautiful & amazing💝
I think it’s wonderful that you care so much about people and truly go above and beyond the call of duty. I was wondering if your job ever takes a toll on your home life? I ask this in the nicest way possible!! I totally don’t want to sound mean or be to be to personal!! I just wondered how you balance home life and work life? Does your husband understand your job and what it means to help someone like Victor? I really hope this doesn’t sound terrible!!! 😊😊
Kari Northey, I think that is so wonderful! It makes things so much easier when your partner understands what you do and why you’re so passionate about it! Thank you for replying to our comments! It really does make us feel apart of what you’re doing! I love your videos and have learned so much! Thank you!!
Is Victor still with us? God Bless you
Kari, I'm almost positive this same man has done a recent documentary with Real Stories here on RUclips! I've only watched a few minutes, but the similarities are very much there. The name is a tad different though. Idk. Just wanted to mention this!
Send me the link to my email will you please!! kari@karinorthey.com
@@KaritheMortician Sent!
Was it Victor? Xx
@Daniel Garcia The episode I'm speaking of is not. Haven't watched it in months but I believe they were filming in LA, where he was living at the time.
Real Stories does lots of stories from other countries!
@@amberlouise86 Not enough info to be 100% positive but the similarities are insane!
Your a angel!!!!!!!God bless you!!!!😇😇😇😇😇😇
Hi Kari. What a lovely, yet sad story. I noticed that u filmed this 3 yrs ago. Has Viktor, transitioned? It makes me very sad to hear abt those who have cancer, whether I know the person or not. This is bc, cancer is an equal opportunity killer. But I have to say that he had/has a lot of courage to visit a FH, and make his arrangements. I couldn't do that. I'd just leave it to my friend. Best I could bring myself to do, is write a letter, mail it to her & tell her not to open until I transition.
U are a really caring & understanding person. This why I liked educating myself thru you. The way you explain things to your subscribers, kind of takes the sting out of death. Thank you.
Nope he was a fake lol but was a good experience
@@KaritheMortician That is nothing short of weird!
@@KaritheMortician
Ohhhhh noooooo
You are such a good person and must be a wonderful Mom !
Truly amazing story
Thank you!!
This made my heart break even more!!!!!
My dad passed away not even 2 weeks from pancreatic cancer. So It kills me more since I have been talking to victor. And getting to know his story. I think of him everyday and get on here all the time!! Also kari your an amazing person! Honestly I get scared still get scared of death and I have no reason why.. I know I won't "feel" anything when I die but the thought now if I get buried to if I be on fire and cremated that just gives me so much anxiety. But watching your stuff has help. But I just don't know what I want one day considering I'm scared of being burned or go in the ground.
I also lost a son who was 26 weeks prematurely born but his brother (twin) survived. I mean seriously how do you grieve and be hopefully at the same time? We had him cremated but I don't and haven't looked at his ashes. He was the bigger twin weighing 2 pounds 7oz and the survival twin weighed 1 pound 5 oz. The names are Gabriel and Adam.
Thank you! That means a lot to me!
Adam survived and Gabriel passed away. They were born November 18. Gabriel coded 4 times and he was the 2 pounds 7 oz. He lived 19 hours after birth and passed on November 19 of 2014.
He's very delayed in speech so he needs speech therapy also he has had 4 bowel obstructions which has led to short gut syndrome. He's on a special formula to drink and he may need a G tube. When he finally came home from NICU he was on a year of O2. Then when he came home after the obstructions he came home on feeding tube through the nose. I had to learn to drop them down his nose. I hope he doesn't need anymore surgery. Ugh so scary but yet so stressful.
A lot of ups and downs loaded with feelings , I imagine. Other life events, not as serious, yet stir up a variety of thoughts as well.
Hi kari its Jody I saw you a few months after your started you tube in love you and you gave me very good ideas for my passing and I know your ship busy but I wanted to say thank you and I would like for you too take care of me after I passed or at least meet you and your husband I watch you so much my family think im crazy to watch you
Thanks for support
are you going to be embalmed by kari after you pass away you can request kari to care for you at kari's funeral home so she can put it in you file in the funeral home.
Lovely story hope to hear more about victor but hopefully he will last longer
Such a brave guy! What is death with dignity?
the answer depends on the situation i believe. personally, every time i hear this phrase i cringe because in my life its always been used by people choosing to take their life because they are diagnosed with some disease and would rather die while they are in better shape so they are no ta "burden" to their family. as a "disabled" person (i use a wheelchair) who loves her life this bothers me. the doctors always told my parents the worst case scenario and that i would never have quality of life. if i choose or they chose to believe the dr's i would not be here to see how wrong the doctors were. i dont think shes meaning the phrase this way, but it is what i think of every time i
hear it. ill be curious her response. Side note, i am not judging what others decide to do, simply pointing out that what the dr's and others say your life wil lbe like after a diagnosis isnt always correct. So making a decision of suicide, euthanasia, or abortion isnt always the best choice. ill leave it at that lol
Living Able What’s right for you isn’t necessarily right for someone else. Everyone should have the right to decide for themselves.
I work in childcare with several special needs children. Sometimes parents r told information from medical staff when their children r very young that they will not b able to walk, communicate, not good quality of life, etc and the child has turned out to b extremely mobile and happy. I think the strength of the spirit has a lot to do with it.
I think it’s a big comfort for people to know they have choices in a situation they have no control over. After watching four people pass away from cancer, I empathize. I would never want to die like that. I’d rather go to sleep comfortably with my family around me than be in that much pain, to literally wither away into nothing. Living in Florida my family owns a hair salon that’s 90 percent seniors. Hospice is done at home with a lot of patients until usually the last few days. I don’t want to lay in a bed for a year or however long, withering away in agonizing pain.
I understand that I’ll say a prayer for him
Hello Kari I've a couple of questions I loved the video u did with ur mom I just cried but to let u know my mom is a medical Examiner back home in Oxford England UK 56 miles NW of London and I asked her Y do you do this type of work she enjoys studying of the bones and she told me I'm the Voice for the Dead I thought you might wanted to know that and if u ever heard that reason the Voice for the Dead My other question is Y when the deased is lying in the casket u always see their hands crossed is their a reason for that and how do you keep them in place with out sliding down. My other question is u did a video can't remember the title was about but u said something to the effect of a pacemaker exploding well I have a heart Defibrillator implanted .My last question when my husband of 23 yrs was killed in the Iraqi war the funeral home here in Houston Tx USA was opened 24 hrs for viewing but their was a Marine 1at every Exit and 2 in front of the front doors the funeral Director and staff left out on the table Coffee and Pastries and they all went home. Next month October Halloween of all times will be my husband's 12yrs with the Good Lord. To this day I still miss him. Do you know any grieving communities were people have lost someone in the Military. Please let me know something soon 🙏 I'm scared of dying
Please email me these questions it would be easier to respond :) kari@karinorthey.com
Very tough position to be in.Having to rely on medical people to say you have x number of day's,hours left then commit to dying with dignity as the alternative could happen,more so if you have a family,friends that love you to bits...☹️
Thank you
Can you pls tell us what happened to victor ??? It's a year later
wow that's so amazing that you got to help him.
you do know sometimes a little goes a long way just you being asked shows just how much God trust you to handle people and to help them to the end is a blessing and help them plan to take the pain off their love ones is truly a gift. It makes the pain a little easy to bare. So you help more than you think.
You are welcome
You are so blessed what you do
I know this may sound crazy ..but I lost my Mom in August.to cancer ..I was at hospital and she couldnt eat solid food..but I remember her saying can you go get me a tuna sandwich in the cafeteria...now when I think back I feel ..did she do that as a selfless act of not wanting me to witness her pass...I know she knew how sensitive I was/Am.....
When my mother died at 80 January 20, 1996 we were in the hospital with her. She had been unresponsive then suddenly her eyes opened and she looked around at us then her head went back down on the pillow and all the instruments went flat and the nurse came in when she saw it out at the station. She wanted to be cremated and I imagine as she was a smoker and she did drink some her ashes may have been darker
Thank you for sharing about her
bless your heart
I had a friend that did this.. she planned the service too and e end the songs she wanted we to sing at her funeral
My wife and I have already planned our funeral arrangements for ourselves and our special needs daughter. We are in pretty good shape but didn’t want our children to deal with the burden we selected cremation and already have our monument created with our names and birthdates. Hope we don’t have to use it anytime soon lol.
You are an angel . Would you consider going back to California to care for him would they allow that
You are just one beautiful person.
You are A GODLY ANGEL!!GOD BLESS YOU!!
Thank you
Kari, this and a prior video was about Victor. Was Victor one of the seven viewers who had questions that you said was like Jeopardy in that short close up video that I went bonkers over? You held up the list and I thought I saw his name. That wasn't that long ago.
How is Victor doing? What has happened to him?
I can understand why he felt that way.My husband and I have made our arrangements It was important to me to be cremated where my son was.Just a strange kind of bonding.❤
Thank God my mom has done her pre-arrangement and paid for her funeral. We know what she wants.
Fred Hill yes it certainly makes a difficult time less so in that you know you’re doing what they (the deceased) wants and also the financial strain element is removed/lessened.
Is Victor still with us ?
Great video!!!
Kari Northey haha you mentioned firefighter so you automatically had me hooked haha
Could you do a quick discussion one day about what funeral directors can do or usually do for people who are homeless or unclaimed by any family or just low income?
Ok I will look back to find it and look at it
I am a little confused . Will you be traveling to California again when he passes to care for him ? I totally understand seeing someone like you online and reaching out for you to do the embalming etc .
Daniel Garcia, Thank you for opening yourself up and allowing Kari to let us into this most private moment.
DO YOU EVER GET SCARED WHEN YOU EMBALM SOMEONE THAT ONE DAY THIS IS WHAT THERE GOING TO DO TO YOU ONE DAY
Kari do you think he ever died or was he playing you
PLaying
ok kari i have been following you for a while now and i too have end of life facing....i live in florida and want my body to be transfered to michigan where i grew up and lived half of my life. can you give me steps what i should do here in florida first then could i be transferred thru a funeral home here? i am at a stand still on what my plans are. also i have a life insurance policy that is set aside for my funeral and i cant cash it in till i die..any suggestions??? thank you very much
Daniel Garcia, how are you?
Hi Victor! I know there is a reason I watched this video today, to meet you!! I'm praying for you and hugging you from Missouri💙
Kari can you give us an update on Victor Daniel? I remember Drs had extended his time to possibly October. I havent seen him comment lately unless i missed it.
Kari Northey Praise God. I hope he isn't suffering to much. I feel better that he has the Death with Dignity option.
This is a wonderful story, my own mother passed from brain cancer, she went too fast, but planned her funeral before she went.
Any news on victor?
Do you think it is to early to pre plan on funeral?
Is he still with us.
What is the latest information on Victor?
@@KaritheMortician That's great news for someone that
was at death's door last year! I wonder what his
secret is...
@Daniel Garcia Hello Daniel, I'm glad you are still with us. What
kind of cancer do you have, if I may ask? And, have you tried
alternative treatments? There are endless YT videos on many
types of cancer that people have had and are now free of the
disease. I know of one woman's daughter that had 5 different
types of cancer and she used a variety of all natural treatment
protocols and she is alive and well today after being told by her
doctors to go home and plan her funeral after years of grueling
chemo. She was exhausted and wanted to give up but her Mother
wouldn't let her surrender to death! You should do a YT search on
your particular cancer and check to see what others have found
to be successful treatments. As long as there is breath in your
body there is always hope! I'm praying for you and your family
Daniel as are many others here. Don't give up and don't give in!
This is a battle you can win!!! We can pray you through! I'm
sending you blessings of health and well being Daniel... =)
@Daniel Garcia Hi Daniel, thanks for your reply. I found
videos that relate to your situation and they are listed
below. I know that a body that is highly acidic is a body
that will develop and feed cancer, while a body that is
PH Balanced will not feed or support cancer. You can
buy PH Balance Test Strips at health food stores and
take your own PH level test and then you can monitor
your PH level as you change to a more healthy cancer
fighting diet. Nutrition is key to a healthy body and the
water you ingest is very important also. Water with any
fluoride is not healthy for the human body. FYI, these
videos can help you find your path to better health if
you apply their knowledge to your life each day. Where
there is the will to live, God made a way to live a better
healthier life. Chemicals kill, nature heals and, "The
leaves of the trees are for the healing of the nations."
I wish you every blessing and I know there are many
people that are praying for you and all that are dealing
with cancer and other deadly diseases that have been
conquered with diet, dedication and the will to live. God
bless you and keep you, may His face shine upon you
and may He grant you health and peace... Take care!!!

@Daniel Garcia Hi Daniel! I'm glad I saw your reply before I
go to bed. I hope you'll watch the videos I listed. They are
loaded with great life saving information. You really should
implement some protocols into your life that will raise your
PH Balance and oxygenate your body. Cancer cannot live
in a body that is PH Balanced and oxygenated. If you get
rid of the acidic body, you will get rid of the cancer. Also,
cut sugar out of your diet, cancer loves sugar! You can get
PH Balance test strips at health food stores and test your
progress as you go. There is a product called Transfer
Factor Classic Formula and I know people that have used
it on their dogs that had been sent home to die after loads
of expensive chemo vet care and got rid of their cancer.
It is a human supplement that has worked for people also
with great results. I wish you all the best and a smooth
road to recovery. Please keep us posted on your progress.
Lots of people are keeping you in our prayers. God bless
and keep you and your family Daniel!!!
Jeez, i wonder what the heck all this was really about, when it comes to him. I know Kari's heart was in the right place but was his??? Hmmm.
