Recently my grandpa who I was very close to passed away, I've never handled death well and always fixate on some part and I've found that learning more about it helps. He was 83, he had a lot of health issues and smoked from 13yrs old so I was blessed getting how long I did with him, he's back with his wife and friends and I am so glad that he's no longer in pain. In his 40s he had a botched back surgery that left him bent over like the hunchback of Notre dam for his whole life, he slept in chair and was unable to lay flat. I keep having this recurring thought that to cremate him he would have had to been laid flat.

So I guess my main question is, if someone's body was unable to lay flat how would the cremation process proceed?
