I was a nursing assistant on an oncology floor a year ago and we had a lady die of stomach cancer (we knew she was going to die that day). But the family took so long to say goodbye to her that by the time we got in there to clean her up and put her in the bag she was rigid so we couldn't close her mouth. Went we went to turn her to put the bag under her all of the bile came streaming out of her nose and mouth. It smelled so bad, I will never forget that. We also couldn't close her eyelids either so it felt like she was looking at us the whole time.

you can if they've just died. I cleaned up about 5 dead people at that job and the other 4 I did just after they've died and their eyelids closed fairly easily. but yeah, tv makes it look so easy and rarely do they ever find them newly dead.
