I had five bypasses a couple years back. Barely survived, but i would have been totally hooped if i had gone with tribal wisdom instead of a damned good (and OMG, white) heart specialist.

You should be told to F off every morning as a good start to the day. You accessment of the miltary situatio in the ME is hopefull speculation. Are you the right age for recall? It matters not anyway, a desperate nation will press you into service anyway. Maybe you can man a shore battery.

Then have at FOOL. lol

You're just pissed because the Russians are ineffective and are getting called on it.

Cliffy could have had a smudging ceremony and rubbed weed oil on your chest.

Of course you would have been as dead as Julius Caesar.

The parents and the child refused treatment. It is their human right to do so. That is where all debate on this ends.

That's where you'd like it to end certainly.

That is not where the debate ends at all though. Her death is the fault of these voodoo witch doctors and her stupid parents.

I see, and the disease had nothing to do with it, and you reccomend months of agonizing CHEMO POISON to feed your big pharma sponsers. What a champion of medicine you are! Get some more flu shots.

So you think we should all be forced to accept whatever treatment the doctors and government decide we should have? The last time such a thing occurred it was the 1940s and in Nazi occupied Europe.

Not really news. This happened awhile ago. It was a stupid move in any case. It shouldnt have been allowed to happen.

So you believe parent's rights supersede the state in all cases?

A lot of people seem to. I disagree. Far too many parents act as if their children are their property to do with as they please.

Oh yeah DB.... when you had your heart attack awile back did you run to the nearest reservation or did you head to the hospital?

Those big pharmas and hospitals saved your azz FOOL.

And I bet right now you are on those big pharma meds.

As unpleasant as chemo is it still has a higher success rate than doing nothing at all.

Wherever he went for treatment it was his choice. I would rather be able to choose my own path than be railroaded into whatever Big Brother wants.

I am somewhat mixed. By letting this happen Canada has realized how stupid her tribe and parents were. They realize that this poor girl was a pawn for her chief.

But on the other hand the hospital staff knew they were sending her home to die when there was a chance for her to live.

Maybe the next FN parents will tell their local medicine men to screw and get their kids medical treatment.

Hey Captain Pharma I never said anything against hospitals and no I don't take the **** they prescribed which a little google research assured me is the right path. They prescribed four concoctions and none of them were more beneficial than better diet and or exercise, but they all steal money from the frightened patients.

What kind of stent procedure did you have? Did you do it all free of meds or did you request a stick to bite on.
