Problem with this is that if the experimental treatments never get tried then even if cryonics works they will still be terminally ill when defrosted. They should probably also make sure that there is some prize around for curing their specific illness with the hope that it will be easily solvable in the future, assuming the illness is relatively rare.
If reviving people works at all, it will probably be either uploading or rebuilding a human body from scratch. Reviving an ill person doesn't seem likely enough to be concerned about.
