If number one is part of your true rejection, look to see if there are head-only cryonics available in your area.

I'd thought that signing up for both organ donation and even head-only cryonics leads to battles over one's body- the necessary preparations are quite different. I'd be happy to find I'm mistaken, though.

My research via CI and Alcor suggests you are correct. I don't have sources offhand, but should be easy to find on their websites.

What orthonormal said -- I was told that the circulatory system was used to get the crypopreservant into the brain and this rendered the other organs unusable.
