Does this mean that if you commit 5 or 6 figures for a heart transplant, you should have the right to * eat a large meal before surgery? * purchase your new heart on the black market? (widely advertising your intentions to do so) * cancel your medical insurance days before the surgery? (to name by analogy just a small fraction of the patient-generated problems encountered during the cryonics case in question) *************************************************************************** Brian Wowk CryoCare Foundation 1-800-TOP-CARE President Human Cryopreservation Services http://www.cryocare.org/cryocare/ Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=6160
