X-Message-Number: 13418 From: Date: Thu, 23 Mar 2000 17:29:20 EST Subject: Mae My wife, Mae A. Ettinger, died on March 18 after a heart attack and stroke. She died at home under hospice care. In attendance were her daughter Bonnie, my son David, and myself, assisted by hospice personnel. The delay between clinical death and initiation of our procedures was not more than a minute or two. Washout and perfusion were done by a local mortuary that had had previous training and experience--two training sessions plus one previous actual patient. She is now one of our patients at our Michigan facility. Further details will appear in THE IMMORTALIST and on our web site. She was a good woman, a good wife, and a good friend. I miss her terribly, but retain hope for all our present and future patients. Thanks to the kind friends who have given their support and their condolences.
