Cryogenics

In the light of the court decision to allow a 14 year old girl to have her body frozen after her death, how would you all feel about doing the same thing?

Generous or foolhardy to pay such vast amounts of money  for something they'll never see?.

What happens to all those people if that firm runs out of money to keep them all frozen?



It's life Jim, but not as WE know it.

Re: Cryogenics

It seems that some body parts can be frozen and later restored to function again but a whole body is beyond restoration to life?

 

This is only a minute part but it worked?:-

Re: Cryogenics

I don't like the idea of being frozen with a terminal illness to be awoken years later and be cured. 

But then I'm 57 and have had much more life that that poor young girl....it just seems like a money making racket to me preying on the vulnerable

You're probably not far off the mark there, yet more people making promises they know they will never have to keep !!

I don't see how it would be possible....no one would be alive then, the money long gone and probably worthless anyway with inflation! The only good thing is that it gave the young girl some hope and peace beforehand, and her parents too. 

Very sad situation all round
