The stepsister of a Colorado woman who was found dead along with her sister and teenage son at a remote Rocky Mountain campsite says the women fled into the wilderness after struggling to cope with societal changes in recent years, but they were unequipped to survive off the grid.
Exposed to several feet of snow, chills below zero and with no food found at their camp, Christine Vance, Rebecca Vance and Rebecca’s son likely died of malnutrition and hypothermia, according to the autopsies released this week. Authorities haven’t released the boy’s name.
Those reports contained another chilling detail that brought stepsister Trevala Jara to tears: The 14-year-old boy’s body was found with Jara’s favorite, blessed rosary that she gave the group before they left.
I am tempted to do this as I have the training.
I also have type 1, which cuts my chances of doing it significantly.
I can make my own insulin, but that means boiling a lot of pancreas that are not mine. Turning me into a vampire like creature for others pancreatic juices…
Technically didn’t that already make you a vampire… Just one that lives in a society where you pay money to a good of people to find and boil those pancreas for you?
Nah, insulin is produced by bacteria that have been edited to contain the genes to create insulin. No pancreas is harmed to make it.
Now-a-days it’s not made from pancreas, but I’m not confident enough to edit yeast DNA yet.
Sorry, when you say you can do you mean you have, and used it?
I have a small amateur lab at home, yep.
Its really easy to make once you know how. Though it takes a lot of prep and animal pancreas.
I’d rather use pharma insulin though. I only learned for SHTF reasons.
