As we move through life, there’s a quiet power in pausing to reflect on the paths we've taken, the people we've loved, and the impact we've made. Reflection helps us see our story with clarity and purpose. It reminds us that even small acts of kindness or courage can leave lasting ripples around us.
For many, legacy planning is part of this meaningful process. Whether it's organizing personal affairs, sharing stories with loved ones, or making choices about end-of-life care, legacy planning offers a sense of peace. It’s not just about what we leave behind; it’s about living intentionally and aligning our choices with our values.
Some find comfort in knowing their legacy can contribute to something greater. Choosing whole-body donation to science, for example, is a deeply generous decision that supports medical research and future generations. It’s just one way people reflect their values and ensure their story continues in a powerful, life-giving way.
Taking time to reflect can bring clarity, healing, and peace. Your legacy is already unfolding. The power lies in choosing how you'd like it to continue.

Every step you take now can bring peace of mind for you and those you love.
Caring for a loved one is one of the most selfless and meaningful acts we can offer. But even the most devoted caregivers can feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or isolated over time. This is known as caregiver burnout, and it’s more common than many realize. Recognizing the signs of burnout and knowing how to care for yourself along the way can make a big difference for both you and your loved one.
At Science Care, one of the most common questions we receive is: “Can I still donate my body if…?”
Many people worry that a medical condition, age, or lifestyle factor may disqualify them from becoming a whole-body donor. The good news is, most people are eligible.
We’re here to help clear up common misconceptions and explain how the process works so you can feel confident making this generous, impactful decision.
