Surely not all cryonics patients suffer terminal illnesses. What about being suddenly killed by an injury? As a young person, and as someone at low risk for AIDS, I think that for the next few decades I'm at far greater risk of being killed in an accident than of dying of a disease. For myself, my main cryonics concern isn't extended pre-mortem shock, but rather the response time of my cryonics provider if I'm suddenly killed in an accident here in Virginia.
