via ABC New CH 27 Oregon:

Health care facilities in Oregon will be allowed to return amputated
body parts to patients for cultural, spiritual or religious reasons
under a new law supported by tribes, Oregon Public Broadcasting
reported.

The bill, which takes effect on Sept. 24, was spearheaded by St.
Charles Health System and leaders of the Confederated Tribes of Warm
Springs. For some members of the tribes, keeping a person´s body
together is necessary for a smooth transition to the spirit world.
