Once you have been declared dead, doctors or morticians will work to keep you cool. They inject you with heparin to prevent blood clots, hook you up to a heart-lung machine to keep oxygen and blood moving through your system artificially, and get you to the cryonics center as quickly as possible. The optimum time from death to arrival at the center is less than an hour. Some patients have arrived as late as six hours after death.

They were mocked and scorned, but they were eventually proven right. And think of the adventure if I re-animate in another solar system with my loved ones. What a life we'll have." (Goodavage, 1990) Even though that cryonics is not a reality now, it doesn't mean that it won't be real. So cryonics is also possible. "It just seemed it was low risk and high reward. If it doesn't work, it will have the same result as if I was buried or cremated." (O'Connor, 1997)

There are people who accepted cryonics because they can't accept death. "I hold a great value on life but I also very afraid of dying." (O'Connor, 1997) They were also afraid of dying. "I have always questioned dying, and I don't want to die. This way, I could die and have a chance of coming back. I would just like to prolong my life as long as possible." (O'Connor, 1997) Many people who existed way before us wanted to live forever. As in history there are many people who wanted to find way to keep themselves youthful. "Human have always wanted to chat death, and for thousands of years there has been a good living to be made peddling death-defying magic potions and spells. Today, science has taken over from superstition." (Bagnell, 1995)

Despite all the risks, there are still people willing to take the chance to live again-possibly in a totally different world. Many of the problems facing the human race today may have disappeared, and you may find it enlightening to discover how humanity overcame disease, unemployment, economic instability and overpopulation. They might want to live in a perfect world where almost everything is solved. Whatever the reason may be, there are many people willing to try cryonics. Everyone might have a different reason for it but they are willing to try it.

Cryonics was mostly the stuff of science fiction until Ettinger, a physics professor from Michigan, popularized the idea in his book, "The Prospect of Immortality" in

There are so many different reasons why do people want to try out cryogenic. "I kind of laughed about the whole concept of cryonics at first, but then I decided, what do I have to lose? Most people think it's a little crazy. But now that there're cloning sheep and so forth, this doesn't seem that far-fetched." (O'Connor, 1997) Each person had his/her view point about cryogenic. "A man who had suffered injuries in a car crush caused by a drunken driver, which had ruined his life as a jazz musician. He hoped that future science could make him whole again." (Bagliuo, 1994) All this person wanted is to recovered completely by using future science to heal him. "AIDS victims or patients with cancer who felt bitterly deprived of their fair ration of life and were hoping for more." (Bagliuo, 1994) These people as well wanted to use future technology to heal them. "A woman who had sacrificed her creative ambitions in order to raise a family. She hoped that if she gained an extra lease on life, she'd have time for all the things she'd missed." (Bagliuo, 1994) This person wanted to live longer so she can do all the things that she wants but had missed. There were also other people that have different plan for cryogenic. This man has a very different viewpoint from the other. "The hope is to have the years and health to do what is impractical now: Explore the Amazon, know Shakespeare and Robert Burns, learn to play Mozart and Scott Joplin...travel the solar system and the stars, see mankind scattered safely around the galaxy, pass on my loved ones is overwhelming; to lose that chance, heartbreaking." (Bagliuo, 1994) This man wanted to live on because he wanted to learn everything that existed. He knew that he won't be able tolerant everything because he would die before he can finish learning them. He would also wanted to experience the future.
