Drunken Mummy

[Nebulous]

In some cultures, it wouldn't be considered strange for a mother to take care of her son for 40 years. However, it might seem a little weird if he were dead for almost two decades.

After Joni Bakaradze died at age 22, his family in the Eurasian country of Georgia decided against interring him, and instead preserved his body as a mummy for 18 years using alcohol. His mother, Tsiuri Kvaratskhelia, told Georgia News that the decision was made so that her son's child could "see what kind of father he had."

What child?

Besides that, wouldn't pictures work?

Poor kid, I should think that would scar him for life looking at that.

I know, couldnt she just recreate his father's memory through pictures and stories? Seems like the sane way to go.
