It was my mothers wishes – I want to Thank MedCure for all they have done. They took good care of my mother’s body and got her remains back to me safely. I was glad they could use my mothers body for help in training and possible cure for cancer… It was my mothers wishes.. Thank you so much Med Cure you staff was very compassionate… Thank you so much.”
Finding MedCure was fortuitous in allowing my father’s wishes to be granted – “I want to thank MedCure for allowing my Father to help further scientific research. He loved science and subscribed to many different publications and was an avid reader. He originally donated his body to the university he attended, but I found out just days before his passing they would not accept him. Finding MedCure was fortuitous in allowing my father’s wishes to be granted. Thank you for that. I know it made him happy and gave all of us peace that his wishes were followed through.”
Thank you again for the kindness and compassion – I wanted to thank your company for the wonderful communication and care you have shown my family. It was always his wish to help further research and education upon his death…Thank you again for the kindness and compassion you have shown my family.”
It was an incredibly difficult time for me but MedCure helped a lot – “I wanted to thank you and your organization because of the peace you brought my father. He talked a great deal about how this was going to make my life easier when his “time came”. He was right. It was an incredibly difficult time for me but MedCure helped a lot.”
Everything you said would be done was, it made life easier for me at a very difficult time – “Thank you for your letter advising me what contribution the donation of my husband’s body made toward research and education. I wish to also thank you for all you have done for my family and myself. Everything you said would be done was, it made life easier for me at a very difficult time. From the time my husband’s body was picked up by the funeral home to your letter, I have been very impressed. I am glad that I also am registered with you as I can rest easy knowing that it will make things easy for my girls when my time comes. I live in a 55+ retirement community and at one of our Homeowner meetings, I told the residents about MedCure. Several people have contacted me and have registered with you.”
We were able to make that happen for him – “My father passed in 2012. He and my sister had located your company. Dad always wanted to donate his remains to science for research. We were able to make that happen for him, because of MedCure. Thank you so very much for all you do ”
It was a real comfort to me that even after my mom was gone – “My mom was a feisty and full of life individual. When she was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2007, she realized she could no longer be an organ donor. Believing that if someone could use a part of her body to keep someone alive was an important belief to her. As her cancer progressed she looked into donating her body to science. She said, “if they can’t use my body for someone else, then maybe they can learn from it”. My mom lost battle with cancer in 2012. It was a real comfort to me that even after my mom was gone she was doing something to help others. The Medcure team was understanding, compassionate, and informative. I was informed every step of the way of my moms progress. After she was cremated her ashes were returned to me in a nice heart shape box. I highly recommend Medcure if someone is thinking about donating their body to science. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
We were able to make that happen for him – “My father passed in 2012. He and my sister had located your company. Dad always wanted to donate his remains to science for research. We were able to make that happen for him, because of MedCure. Thank you so very much for all you do ”
Your team was and is amazing – “There are no words to express how grateful I am to the MedCure Team for being so kind and patient with me and doing EXACTLY what you promised with my husband. Taking care of him with the utmost expediency, care and kind professionalism. When we ‘joined’ MedCure last year, I would have never dreamed I would need your services so soon and admittedly, was a little worried about everything running smoothly….but, again, your team was and is amazing. I sincerely look forward to spreading the word and recommending MedCure to everyone I know. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
Professional and compassionate throughout – “As I was researching body donation for my brother, he passed suddenly. We had to act quickly to ensure his wishes were carried out. MedCure was professional and compassionate throughout. After his gift was complete, at my request, MedCure sent a letter letting me know his donation went to further orthopedic research. MedCure does a great service and I highly recommend them if you are considering whole body donation.”
Everything about our experience was positive – “We thought it was wonderful to be kept informed as things happened during he (donation) process. Everything about our experience was positive and I certainly hope he will be useful in someway to the medical community. Dealing with his death was not pleasant for our family but his donation to MedCure gave us all a little more comfort and peace of mind. Thank you very much!”
Absolute compassion and efficiency – “On behalf of myself and my family, I wish to thank you and your staff for the way this sad event was handled – from the beginning to end. It was an extremely difficult time for me when I spoke to your representative. She handled my queries with absolute compassion and efficiency that put my mind at ease. I had follow up questions that were answered by another one of your representatives and she was equally as compassionate and efficient. These ladies along with the wonderful people at the hospice are very special people. My wife could not have wished for a more fitting farewell. I had a recommendation from a hospice to contact you. I discussed donation with my wife and she volunteered without hesitation to donate her body for advancement of medicine and cures. I have received (my wife’s) cremains and thank you for the dignity in which this has been held to.”
I only hope that you can continue the work that you do forever – “MedCure family, I would just like to thank you for making the day that my husband went on to glory a lot easier for me. I honestly could not have done it without you. Because of the money that I saved on his cremation, I was able to have a beautiful ceremony in honor of his life. My husband was the light of my life, my best friend and the greatest man I’ve ever met. He is truly missed. I keep the beautiful heart-shaped vessel holding his remains on my mantle piece, until I am able to put them in the ground and plant a tree above which was his final wish. I only hope that you can continue the work that you do forever. Thank you again and God bless you all!”
The entire staff provided much needed support – “You made the worst day of my life so much easier to bear. My husband and I had already made the decision to use MedCure. Knowing we may contribute to research was the key. The day my husband died was chaotic but after I called and spoke to John things started going smoothly. His kindness as well as excellent follow up was so appreciated. The entire staff provided much needed support – I can’t thank you enough. I know you’ll take good care of me too when I’m called home.”
Thank you so much for your great team and the research you do – “We looked into several donor organizations and kept coming back to yours before we made the decision. Your enrollment and intake interview was so easy and quick. We received the death certificates in 2 weeks, and his ashes were shipped one month to the day of his passing. I received them in 3 days. That is unheard of with any organizations we’ve worked with. Thank you so much for your great team and the research you do. I recommend you to everyone who asks. You will be receiving me when it’s my time to go! Thanks again.”
I want to thank you for the excellent service you provided for us – “We received the cremains of my husband on Wednesday, July 25th. My family and I want to thank you for the excellent service you provided for us. The cremains arrived in very good condition and our whole experience with your organization was very satisfactory.”
Thank you for making a difficult time much more bearable – “My husband’s death was neither sudden nor unexpected. We decided on anatomical donation early on in his illness. We contacted another donation organization and registered. Everything probably would have gone as planned except he passed at 12:15 a.m. on Christmas morning. When I was finally contacted by the organization, they didn’t know if they could take him because of the holiday. They advised me to contact the funeral home and make my own arrangements. This was not what I needed to hear at this point. Fortunately the funeral home put me in touch with MedCure. What an amazing company. I dealt with a woman who was extremely professional, compassionate and helpful. The process was completed the same day!! My original intention was to scatter my husband’s ashes but the heart shaped container is so beautiful I decided to keep them. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this company! They are definitely doing things right! And I was impressed with MedCure’s procedure of pairing the donor and condition with an appropriate learning or research facility! Thank you for making a difficult time much more bearable.”
He wanted others to learn and this program offered him that – “I want to you all know that the idea of helping others was his main mission. He wanted others to learn and this program offered him that. He is still making a difference after death. I am so proud he chose this and we are choosing it too.”
You…enabled us to honor his wishes by donating – “ We first used your service in 2006 when my father in-law died suddenly. We were so pleased. You made it very quick and easy. You helped us fill out the forms, arranged transportation quickly, enabled us to honor his wishes by donating his body, and very quickly sent us his ashes for a small memorial service. Plus all these services were completely free of charge. Most people I know have spent thousands for their parents’ cremation or burials and their bodies did not have the opportunity to be able to help others. My mother in-law was just diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and she has requested we arrange the same service for her. Also we will be registering myself, my husband, and my mother. Anyway we appreciate you for making to process of dealing with the deaths of loved ones as easy, painless, and low cost as possible,while giving them the opportunity to contribute one last time. Thank you.”
When you most need the respect – “Mom lived with us for the last 2 years of her life. We were so blessed to have her and such a sacred thing to have her pass in the place of her choosing…home. I heard of MedCure from our hospice team and let me tell you, MedCure showed us the most beautiful respect through the whole process from the start. I was able to easily set up the process for my mother, she loved the idea that she could be helping others and knowing that within moments of her passing, at the most emotional time in our lives, we didn’t have to think about anything. It was all set and we could just feel what we need to feel and everyone else took care of every detail. Then, loving email updates and the remains came to our door in the most beautiful urn. I have told everyone I know about MedCure and my husband and I have decided to sign up ahead of time. When you most need the respect…you will be so pleased and feel the love. Thank you, we have now planted a tree in our yard in honor of my beautiful mother (actually she was everyone’s mother).”
I Recommend You To Everyone – “ I want to thank you for your many kindnesses every step of the way in the process of taking care of my husband. From the very first phone call, until the delivery of his beautiful urn, you gave me so much comfort in the process. I have recommended you to everyone interested in donation. There are not enough words to express my appreciation. Just know that you have touched and impressed everyone who loved and took care of (my husband).”
MedCure = Peace of Mind – “Peace of mind for the end of life of a loved one and their family. I have always wanted to “give back” and this is the perfect way! I was brought into this world via medical science and it is my choice to leave that way! MedCure and their representatives handled both my parents in the most kind and professional manner. They made me feel comfortable with my decisions and had such compassion for all my thoughts and questions. Therefore, I am a registered donor. Thank YOU MedCure!”
So Helpful In Donating His Body For Research – “Thanks to MedCure my family and I have dealt with the loss of our brother and son so much easier. He had a hard time dealing with his diabetes and spent the last 10 1/2 years in a nursing home. He was only 47. I found MedCure online and my family and I decided this would be a great opportunity to donate his body for research. The staff at MedCure was very helpful and we received his ashes within 4 weeks. My mom was so pleased at the beautiful heart shaped box his ashes came in. She isn’t in very good health herself, but knowing her son was able to help with research made this loss bearable for her. I personally would like to thank everyone at MedCure for the wonderful work you do.”
Helping Countless Others – ”MedCure was the right decision. The tender touch when my father was picked up until the delivery of his ashes, MedCure was professional, caring and helps countless others through (linking body donations) to researchers. My father wanted to donate his body due to his many cancers at a young age. He hoped that with his selfless act many more could be saved.”
Mom Died At Peace Knowing She Could Help Others Through Body Donation- “My mom worked at our local hospice when she was getting her masters in social work; this is how she found out about MedCure. I wouldn’t have known donation was her final wish if I hadn’t had found her consent while cleaning her house when she was diagnosed with brain cancer. The doctor was shocked my mom was still able to walk and talk when he discovered her tumor. My mom was able to die at home in peace knowing she had a way to help others. I really enjoyed how well you took care of things. I have decided to donate my body to science too.”
Thank You For Your Sympathy And Concern – ”I also chose the right place! As a single mom, I had NO funds for a funeral or even a $1500 cremation. The funeral director told me about MedCure, and I want to say thank you to MedCure for their sympathy, concern and appreciation for receiving a young man with so many complications that (they) can learn from. I am very thankful for MedCure AND our funeral home for directing me to them. I know he is in a better place now. He is in God’s hands.”
He Would Have Been Pleased His Body Donation Helped Things Our Family Has Dealt With – “My husband wanted to be an organ donor, but when he was diagnosed with metastasized cancer he realized that wouldn’t be an option. He decided to donate his body for medical research instead and was pleased when he learned he could do that through MedCure for free. He would have been more pleased to find our part of the research his body contributed to was related to things our family has dealt with, hearing loss and spinal problems.”
We Are So Grateful For MedCure - ”My mom was diagnosed with lung cancer and it had spread in her body. As she became more sick, the doctors said chemo would not help her. Mom decided she wanted to donate her body. When she passed away, she was picked up from the house and four weeks later we got her ashes back in a pretty little heart box. To this day, mom still sits on the shelf and we are so grateful for MedCure and what they are doing. We were promised mom would be taken care of with dignity. Thank you for the miracles you are doing with medicine.”
I Have Chosen The Right Place – “After my mother passed away I was in anguish and despair because there were no funds to cremate and scatter her ashes where she wanted as her final resting place. I was told of MedCure and the opportunity to donate for medical research and that I would receive her cremated remains. After speaking with MedCure employees and receiving sympathy and respect, I know I have chosen the right place. My mom would be happy knowing she is helping others and I am happy I will get her back to carry out her final wishes. This is something my husband and I have decided to do as well. Thank you MedCure for all of the work you do and will continue to do!”
Thank You For Making A Sad Time Much Easier - “I would like to say thank you so much for making a sad time so much easier. We had nothing to do but notify you of his passing and you handled everything else just as promised. We feel that the only way science can better the treatments of illnesses is to have donors that may have an illness that was not treated,. The young people that are in school to become doctors need to donors to study and perfect their skills. God Bless the work you are doing. You will see me when my time comes! All anyone has to remember is the body is only a vessel and once we leave God takes us.”
The Heart Shaped Urn Is Beautiful – “Thank you so much for all the respect you gave not only to me but to my mother after her death. It is hard to find someone to trust with a parent, but you exceeded my expectations. Every question I asked was answered, every worry I had was handled with respect and dignity, and the Heart shaped Urn my mom was returned to me in is beautiful, she would have loved it. I am recommending Med Cure to all my friends, and even people I do not know.”
You Have Exceeded My Expectations Of Caring And Respect – “The cremains of my darling arrived today and I simply have to thank all of you for taking such good care of him. From the first call when I informed you of is passing; through the inclusion of your note and ‘wild-flower seed card’ with his cremains, you have exceeded my expectations of caring and respect. I am comforted knowing the quality of service my children will receive when it is time for me to join my husband.”
Everything Was Handled Just As It Was Promised – “My sister-in-law died unexpectedly and our family was not prepared for her arrangements. After a quick search on the internet I found your website, and gave the phone number to my mother-in-law to contact MedCure. The MedCure representative walked my mother-in-law through the process in a professional and respectful manner, even accommodating the fact that she did not have a computer or access to the internet. Everything was handled just as it had been promised. The lovely heart-shaped container with my sister-in-law’s remains was a special blessing to our family. Thank you for your work and for the way you walked us through the process. We will recommend MedCure to others.”
Efficiency, Kindness And Dignity – “Words cannot express my gratitude to you for your efficiency, kindness and dignity shown throughout (the donation process). The hospice was not familiar with MedCure and they were impressed. The kind words and follow-up calls were appreciated. My family and I extend our deepest gratitude.”
The Hospice Folks Had Nothing But Glowing Words For Your Services – “I just wanted to send a quick message expressing our deepest thanks for the respectful and dignified way your company handled our needs when my father passed. At first my mother was hesitant but the hospice folks had nothing but glowing words for your services and they were absolutely on the mark. Your help and assistance helped make a trying time less stressful and we all very much appreciate how things were handled.”
Thank You For Everything – “I personally wanted to thank you for the way everything was taken care of. From the phone calls explaining what was going to happen, to the letter you sent explaining how her donation supported medical studies. We deeply appreciate it all.”
We Have Decided To Make The Same Decision As Mom And Donate Our Bodies To Science - “Our family has always been one that recognizes death as a natural part of life and my mom was not afraid to discuss it. Her death was a relief to us as “mom” as we knew her was long gone due to the dementia. I have to say, your employees made the process easy and they did it with COMPASSION! We have been so impressed with MedCure that myself, my fiance, and my brother have all decided to make the same decision as mom.”
The Beauty Of Your Kindness Helps To Heal A Mournful Heart – “To all of you at MedCure, Thank you for your compassion, help and professionalism. I will never forget your kindness and how a loss can be turned into help for humanity. May you know I am very grateful and the beauty of your kindness helps heal a mournful heart.”
Most Rewarding From Start To Finish – “When we were told (she) was going to die, we had to make decisions. We didn’t have the finances for a traditional burial. A friend suggested donating to science. I looked at MedCure along with a few other similar organizations and found MedCure to be the most sincere, caring and informative. My experience with MedCure was most rewarding from start to finish.”
Thank You Very Much For The Beautiful Urn And Your Kindness – “I don’t know what I would have done without your help. I’m going through a hard time as to be expected. We were together for fifteen years and with me being 18 years older, I surely never thought I would have to go through this. But with your help and extra special kindness you certainly made it a lot easier. I have (him) sitting here in his beautiful heart on a special shelf. Thank you very much for the beautiful urn and your kindness.”
