I've seen loads
Working in a hospital does that.

However, the one which sticks in my mind is this particular one.

This one particular lady on a Care of the Elderly ward wanted to use the commode, which was given to her. The curtains were closed to preserve her dignity whilst she had to do what she had to do.

It was then an awful long time before someone realised that she hadn't said that she had finished. It turns out she had done what she had to do, then passed away. Unfortunately, it had been so long, that she had gone into rigor mortis.

I turn up to the ward, to find the men in black (the morturary guys) wheel this poor corpse out, still as if she was seated on the bog. I may have giggled a little bit.

NB: The classic way that people die is shortly after going to the toilet - some of my colleagues call it 'The Elvis'.
