I spoke to Diane and she referred me to an attorney in San Diego
County, whose practice is too busy for Alcor. I'm trying to
convince a friend who is an estate planner to step up. I have to
write a will and make arrangements to move to Oregon in the event I
get a terminal illness. If I end up with something like Alzheimer's
it would be pointless to freeze a vegetable.
Since no one else has done it: "Insert your own Bird's-Eye or Green
Giant reference here."
