Traveling to Europe is unrealistic, for several reasons. The difficulty of travel when one is that infirm, for one. Not all european countries are as permissive with what they allow people to do with bodies after death, I haven't looked into it much (as I don't live there), but I've heard there's been a bit of legal trouble in trying to get cryonics organizations set up in several of the euro countries. And finally, my provider (CI & SA) do not do international cases, both due to the cost and due to legal difficulty in transporting the body.
However your comment about Oregon gives me hope. :) If this is still the case when I'm nearing my expected death I will travel to Oregon and make my arrangements there. Thank you!
I don't argue that. As I mentioned in my previous comment, I would gladly go into suspension a few months early. Even earlier than that in extreme cases.
It can be both. I'm glad it helps me stave off my existential angst, and it does so primarily because it looks to have a chance of working.
I posted links to organizations working to make assisted suicide legal. But I do support SIAI more than these orgs because FAI is orders of magnitude more important. My personal death pales compared to human extinction.
