      Th problem it is not preserving the body, that is the “easy” part. The waking up part is the hard and up to now impossible one.

      Hi Ebby,

      That’s a terrific question. There are people who have chosen to be frozen in a deep freeze just after they have died, to be ‘woken’ when whatever disease they have can be cured. This is called cryonics. These people are currently sitting in a deep freeze somewhere in Arizona waiting for the technology to be available to wake them up again – but as of yet it seems unlikely….
