Hibernation for Humans



Here's some of that text from the msn article.

take centuries.

Doctors are also interested. They'd like to be able
for transplantation.

The United States Army is the most interested
wounded soldiers from battlefields to hospitals.

And that day might
hibernation? Coming soon.

I don't think I want anyone to hibernate me!?!

Eewww...hibernation sounds kinda scary when you put it that way! I want to avoid that at all costs.

What I think we need to implement? Siestas! I am always in need of a good afternoon nap!

Unfortunately, I have been unintentionally "hibernating" for over 2 years now. I never know when it will start or end...usually I feel extraordinarily tired/exhausted the day before....and then I wake up 2-4 weeks later. Sometimes I will wake up for about 4 hours every few days to use the bathroom and rest, and then I go back to sleep (or into hibernation) again. Suddenly one day I will wake up and everything is as normal again. My doctor does not understand why this is happening to me, and I am trying to find out as much about it and any studies on it as I can. I am unable to work, due to another illness, which would now allow me to work - if I could be sure I would be able to be awake to work. I would appreciate any more postings on this topic. I do not like waking up and feeling as though I have just missed half of my life - literally. Thank you.
