Thai girls were first frozen after death

A 2-year-old Thai girl becomes the youngest person to freeze her brain after dying in hopes of reviving in another body someday. Matheryin Naovaratpong (called Einz's family) suffers from a rare form of brain cancer after 2 years of age. Her parents, both medical professionals, decided to use them to allow their children to have a chance to revive.

Sahatorn, her father, said: 'On the first day Einz became ill, we had the idea to do something useful for him. I felt puzzled in my heart but also decided to do it. After that, I explained the family plan. ' Sahatorn's idea is to preserve frozen Einz with cryonics technology. The body, or in the case of Einz, was just a brain, frozen to wait until the miraculous advances in medicine allowed Einz to resurrect in a new body created specifically for her.

Sahatorn looks optimistic: 'As a scientist, my husband and I are 100% sure that this will happen someday but don't know when exactly. Previously, we calculated the time would be 400 or 500 years, but now we think it might be only 30 years'. Sahatorn and his wife Nareerat have all 4 children. Nareerat was removed from the uterus after the first birth, so Einz and his brother and sister were born later. Sahatorn chose Alcor to conduct Einz's brain preservation. Alcor is a not-for-profit organization based in Arizona (USA) and a leading 'life extension' service provider.

The Sahatorn family took an extremely thoughtful preparation, choosing a specially designed coffin to safely transport Einz to the United States. A team of Alcor experts flew to Thailand to directly monitor Einz's preliminary frozen technique. Right at the time Einz's death was announced by the doctors, the Alcor team began the technically frozen process without damaging tissue on a large scale. After arriving in Arizona, Einz's brain was removed and stored at -196ºC in liquid nitrogen. Einz is the 134th customer and the youngest customer of Alcor.

In Sahatorn's mind, Einz's thoughts and traits were preserved in her brain in Alcor and waited until the day of life was rebuilt. The Sahatorn also intend to preserve their bodies in Alcor, although Sahatorn admits there is little chance of seeing Einz again in their new lives.

The couple also planned to fly to the United States to visit Alcor to see firsthand the steel basin that preserved Einz's brain in a state of "latent" (anabiosis). The Sahatorn family also donated the equivalent of frozen storage of Einz to the cause of cancer research in Thailand. Alcor claims the company does not promise a second chance for life but reassures cryonics as a "life-saving effort".

According to Alcor, 'true death' only occurs when the dying body starts to stop working and the chemical mechanisms that start 'disruptive' cannot be recovered. But, future technology can reverse the situation. As soon as an Alcor customer is declared dead, the body will be using artificial life support techniques and blood is replaced by preservatives that can be transported from anywhere in the world. gender to company headquarters in Arizona state of America.

Einz was diagnosed with a severe form of cancer after failing to wake up one morning. A hospital in the Thai capital, Bangkok, conducted tests, found that Einz had an 11cm-sized tumor on the left side of the brain and was diagnosed with meningococcal tumors (or fibroblast fibroblasts) - A rare form of brain cancer often attacks young people and only 30% of patients have a chance to live up to 5 years. After months of stress treatment - including 12 brain surgeries, 20 chemotherapy sessions and 20 radiation treatments - doctors no longer hope to cure Einz.

At the time of his death, Einz lost 80% of his left brain, mostly paralyzed on the right side of his body. The Sahatorn couple wanted brain cells and Einz's other body parts to be preserved to help science study the disease that killed her. Aaron Drake, Alcor's medical response director, commented: 'They don't want their daughter's life to end in nonsense. They hope that the preservation of tissue cells of this particular form of cancer will help science find a more effective cure or even cure it completely. This is altruism. '
