francis_ferns Thanks for the response. That's exactly the reason why I posted this here. I too fail to understand the logic behind asking to be buried alive. If it was a petition for permission to end her life, I'd understand. But why buried alive??

francis_ferns Thanks for the response... I agree watching news on the tv is a good idea, but they really don't cover a lot of these small articles that u'd find in a newspaper... besides, the health section is nowhere featured so vastly on television today...

Hi, We have a campaign running here in India which states 29th of January should be a no tv day... it suggests people go out for a drive, a walk, a dinner, spend time with friends and family... do whatever but do not switch on...

francis_ferns Thanks for the response. I found the idea of not watching tv for a day and spending time with the family as a nice one, but a loud campaign for it a bit strange... Mixed feelings... therefore the post.

francis_ferns Thanks hardworkinggurl, exactly the reason I shared this article here... I fail to understand, why would one want to be buried alive? If u are going to a court for help, u might as well fight for ur property and ur right to live rather than ask for...
