Before she died, 23-year-old brain cancer patient Kim Suozzi, went on the internet and asked for help.
The neuroscience student had been diagnosed with a highly aggressive brain tumor in early 2011. By August 2012, Kim’s life expectancy has dramatically dropped. Doctors told her that she had less than six months to live.
Facing such a bleak prognosis, Kim began investigating into options to extend her life.
“I want to be cryogenically preserved when I die from brain cancer but can’t afford it,” Kim wrote on the social news site Reddit.
“I’ve been interested in cryonics since long before I was even diagnosed, but I never thought that I would have to secure the finances so fast, and without a career or savings to stand on. As weird as it feels to ask for help here, I feel I should just give it a shot and sees what happens.”
“I caused a lot of family controversy last week by breaking the news to my parents. I can tell I’ve alienated them quite a bit as they are Christian and don’t see why I’d want to be preserved; in their mind, I am going to heaven and my ‘soul’ will forever leave my body when I die anyway.”
Cryonic preservation involves freezing a person’s body in the hope that as medical technology advances, their body can be resurrected in the future and treated for their incurable illness.
The controversial process challenges how both people of faith and people of science think and feel about death.
