I can't see that that should be an issue?
Or would someone that were more or less incinerated in a fire, or by a bomb be denied ressurection because of that his/her earthly body were destroyed? Would a paralyzed christian be paralyzed for eternity in heaven? Would an amputeé still miss a limb or more in Heaven? Would a blind man not be able to see in Heaven? Think in a bigger picture, and you'll understand why what happens with our earthly body does not matter when it comes to Heaven

If you are still in the flesh it when this happens it is very painful. But basically I think God is pro.
1Co 5:5 to deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
1Pe 4:6 For to this end the gospel was preached also to the dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the Spirit.
Mal 3:2 But who can endure the day of His coming? And who shall stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner's fire, and like fuller's soap.
Mal 3:3 And He shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver. And He shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may be offerers of a food offering in righteousness to Jehovah.
