Vietnam: Man shares bed with wife's remains for 16 years
(Web Desk) – A Vietnamese man dug up his wife’s remains, sealed them in a plastic sculpture and has been living with her for the last 16 years. Mr. Le Van and his wife were married in 1975 and had seven children. In 2003, Mr. Van, who was working away from home, received a news that his wife had suddenly died.
He used to spend most of his time at the cemetery, sleeping on his wife’s grave, but after a few months, he started worrying about bad weather and rain. He decided that the best way to stay close to his deceased wife was to dig a tunnel into her grave, so he could sleep next to her. However, his children forbade him to go to cemetery for sleep. One night, Mr. Van dug his wife’s grave and recovered all her remains and then filled them into a plastic woman statue to sleep with her.
