Power of Attorney - Healthcare (Cryonics-Focused)
This document gives someone you trust the legal power to make medical decisions for you if you become unable to do so. But unlike a standard health care power of attorney, this version is customized specifically for cryonicists.
Key Features:
-
Authorizes cryonics procedures like CPR and cooling immediately after clinical death—not to revive you, but to preserve your body for cryopreservation.
-
Empowers your chosen agent (e.g., spouse, friend) to work with cryonics professionals and block any actions that might interfere with your preservation (like autopsy or embalming).
-
Allows laypeople or trained volunteers to assist if medical professionals are unavailable or unwilling.
-
Overrides standard DNR orders to make sure cryonics-specific care is allowed.
-
Activates early, either when you’re incapacitated or in pre-terminal decline, giving your agent time to coordinate standby and transport.
This document is essential for ensuring your cryonics wishes are respected by medical teams, hospice staff, first responders, and even family members.
