I found it through reading The Wild Hunt or if you prefer
the_wildhunt (about something completely unrelated). It is a survey of the end of life and death wishes of Pagans. I am not sure if anyone is interested, but I figured I would post the link just in case (I am kind of addicted to surveys).

And that many pagans find comfort in images that many Christians think are grotesque or macabre. I thought that was worth mentioning--that yes, the witchy person may actually *want* her deathbed to be surrounded with skulls and pictures of rotting corpses.

Errm... "Feeding tubes" is a place? I wanna go there...Overall, I liked the survey. (I like surveys; I get to skew the results. And quote the Principia. Always a fun thing.)
I love being able to say "yes, there are specific medical procedures I have religous objections to: the fill-out-useless-forms and follow-standard-protocols parts." (As a Discordian, forbidden to believe what I read, the forms are... interesting.)
I think some of the questions were scrambled a bit.
