The record

The defining act

After learning that recurrent glioblastoma would kill her at 23, Suozzi publicly sought help arranging cryonic preservation. Around 200 people contributed, and Alcor made a special arrangement that allowed her case to proceed.

What was at stake

She had only months to live and had not funded preservation through life insurance. Her decision was made under extreme uncertainty: present medicine could not save her, and future medicine offered no guarantee.

What followed

Suozzi was declared legally deceased on January 17, 2013, and became Alcor's 114th patient through neurocryopreservation.

Why Pax Terra remembers them

Her conviction was not certainty. It was a wager that the future deserved a chance.

Context

No human has been revived after cryonic preservation. Her inclusion honors clarity and conviction in the face of death, not a claim that cryonics works.
