A Judge has made a landmark ruling which will allow a 14 year old girl with Cancer to be frozen, and then ressurected in the future when a treatment is available.

What does /sci/ think?
Let it go, let it go
But she's dead by now anyway, nothing groundbreaking.
>I want to live longer...
A teenager indeed

She's dead
even if she was alive before getting frozen she would die in the process, there is no way to resurrect cells that are frozen with liquid nitrogen, it creates micro crystals inside cells that tear everything apart

About 10 years ago I read about how there is a way to combat that with insuline or some shit. Besides, successful cryonic experiments have been made with animals, even (as they claim) with the unfrozen animal having at least some of the memory it had before.

Good riddance, that is all I have to say.
Maybe in the future when they won't be able to resurrect her, they can study her organs to know how humans were many years ago.

it doesn't matter what was done experimentally, she was frozen with the old way with liquid nitrogen, not even a miracle will resurrect her, her brain cells were gone the moment she was frozen
also I do not believe in those claims of successful experiments

How many years do you think it will take for organs to change? Your body is the same your ancestors had 200 000 years ago.
>>8480561
We are always changing, and your grandfather'
s generation has changes(albeit small) within their DNA.
>>8480554
better for her to die, before her body breaks down completely, with hope for the future, than in a hospital bed in a broken shell of a body knowing nothing awaits besides oblivion, right?
>>8480565
Not enough to show up in autopsy. There will be nothing special about her organs. Her DNA, sure, but you don't need to preserve the whole body for that.
sauce on the piece of ass?
>>8480567
It doesn't matter, when you die, you die, there's no difference

Full article said she died of natural causes, then was frozen. It ended up a court case because she was a minor and her father objected to it.
I thought from the OP this would be like an assisted suicide argument but no, she was declared dead before they ever started the cryogenic process. I didn't understand how that could possibly be controversial at all.
