Comment What about freezing terminal patients before death (Score 1) 254
Most of the comments here assume that you would only freeze someone who has already died. What about freezing terminally ill patients in the hopes of thawing them when the cure for their disease (eg. pancreatic cancer) has been found?
That way we don't have to worry about getting the corpse to the freezer within five minutes of the time of death, etc. It would also simplify revival because you're not starting with a body that was already so messed up that it died naturally.
