Procyon Medical/3.0

__NOTOC__
Procyon Medical is a company Owned by Mary Mushkin.
==Description==
Procyon Medical is a medical research facility started by Mary Mushkin to achieve her goal of Immortality.
==Project Mikoshi==
Project Mikoshi is the name of the project. It aims to extract people’s minds and consciousness from their current body and transfer it into a clone body.
Mary was inspired to create this after a rogue chip she had in her brain started to copy and delete her own memories. She recruited Lance to reverse engineer the chip and develop it into something potentially world changing.
Lance took his research to a secret research base in Antarctica to develop the technology until he was called back to Los Santos by Mary, after a scare with her close friend Izzy, to finally get the tech completed.
Mary also recruited Arya, the doctor working with Izzy due to the skill and care she demonstrated during her treatment and recovery.

==Notable Events==
The Cloning of Thomas Dwayne
Mary met with Nick Simone the owner of the hospital in an attempt to purchase her own medical facility to legitimize the process and expand its reach. After detailing the project, Nick thought Mary was insane and wanted proof that the project worked with a live demonstration. The search for a potential candidate was short, Izzy’s dad, Thomas Dwayne was dying with all standard medical treatment failing him, he was open to any and all means to find a treatment and was incredibly open to the project volunteering to become the first patient.
A few weeks later the first procedure took place on February 2, 2023, with the expert care of Lance and Arya and Yokai and Nick as witness, they successfully managed to transfer the memories and consciousness of Thomas into his new body. The procedure itself went fairly smoothly although afterward the mind had trouble adjusting to the new body--and he disappeared from the city. However, they had done it. And Mary now felt unstoppable akin to a god. Although not everyone was as excited.
Procyon Medical Group
Having not reached a partnership with Nick Simone and the Simone Memorial Hospital, Mary had Arya Fitzpatrick pitch a well-received Procyon Medical presentation to Cerberus. Mary's relationship with Cerberus improved when they sold the four shared parking spots next to Otto's Autos to Mushkin's Motors for 25 million dollars on March 1, 2023.
A new opportunity for Procyon Medical arouse on March 19, 2023 when the feud between Mayor Lang Buddha and Nick Simone escalated on Twatter, resulting in the Diamond Dogs gunning down Lang in his armored car. On March 28, 2023 during a private meeting at the Del Pero pier, Mayor Lang informed Arya that he planned to dismantle Simone Memorial Hospital and build a new one. Lang approved of Arya's proposal to round up the Los Santos Medical Group's disgruntled EMS workers into a brand-new Procyon Medical group and hospital.
However, Lang ended up losing his motivation for Cerberus and Procyon Medical to run their own hospital (to rival the Simones') when Cerberus realized that Mary owned Procyon Medical. In particular, Leslie Lingberg distrusted Mary, Eve Summers felt indignant from Mary's attitude regarding the Mushkin's Motors storefront, and Kitty Dream warned them that Mary might go on a firing spree like the time she fired Redline employees from the Tuner Shop. Lang decided to focus on Betta Life Pharmaceuticals instead. To Lang's shock, Mary completely turned on Arya for proposing her own medical group and hospital that would relegate Mary to silent partner--reinforcing Lang's position to only help Procyon Medical as Mayor and not as a Cerberus investor. Ultimately, Lang's mayoral administration denied the Procyon Medical business--and Chief Judge Alan Crane and the Senate denied Tim Collins' Medical Reform Act which would have legislated the new Procyon Medical group (and have AEGIS oversee both that group and the Los Santos Medical Group).
Ironically, Mary ended up bankrolling the successful mayoral campaign of the husband of Simone Memorial Hospital Administrator Bunny, Sexton "Hardcastle" Cohen, who had once investigated Yokai for months but was fired from the police for returning Mary's sentimental Big M dongle back to her. Hardcastle succeeded Lang Buddha as the Mayor of Los Santos on June 10, 2023.
Procyon Medical planned to partner with Nexus Pharmaceuticals next. However, Mayor Sexton was told that Procyon Medical couldn't be approved because they wanted their own hospital. Sexton consulted Senator Sean Davis about whether Procyon Medical could still be approved without the hospital, but was still unsuccessful.
