It would have and was killing her. Burning her up from the inside. There was another episode, "The Doctor's Wife," where the energy of the time vortex - the actual soul? of the Tardis - was placed into a human body and I don't remember how long that body lived but it wasn't long. The doctor pulled the energy of the time vortex out of Rose and then released it back into the Tardis, but his body just sorta automatically begins the process of regenerating when his body is lethally damaged (he has to regenerate before he is actually dead - the premise expressed in the very last season). When Rose defied the laws of time, and brought Jack back to life, she irrevocably changed him and made him nearly immortal (he isn't really immortal, just very very very long lived with freakishly awesome regenerative capabilities.) Pretty sure he actually dies, as the face of Beaux (sp?) in season 3 during the episode "Gridlock" ages and ages into the future history of mankind. If I'm remembering correctly. Yeah, I kinda sorta liked the show.
