Then I suggest you get the help you need to deal , rather than posting this garbage. This would not have saved your child. I hate to be so blunt, but you are actually causing damage to other people who are suffering, by offering a false hope . I can,t think of anything worse than losing a child, but perhaps you could use the support boards to talk about that, rather than trying to blame the doctors, nurses, god, whatever. You need counseling, and support to get rid of the anger and the blame, the pain will never go away, but learn to use it constructively, to honestly help others. Your posts are a dry for help, but you must not put this information on the cancer boards you are causing harm to others. Stop.
First off I am not a conspiracy theorist, although there is an awful lot of information about events that occurred 80 years ago (way before the days of message boards, the internet, social media, Facebook and anything going “viral” – no pun intended) to suggest I might have to become one. Pure logic alone requires any intelligent person to ask themselves, if this is all truly false, absolutely untrue in every way, then how is this story, this incredibly difficult to believe story, still being talked about after more than three-quarters of a century?
Secondly, there was once a time when the brightest minds in the world believed the Earth was flat. Are you seriously that arrogant to believe that the brightest minds of our time are absolutely 100% correct with the thinking that nuking our bodies with radiation and chemotherapy treatments, killing ALL the cells, healthy or diseased, while in the process destroying our bone marrow which produces the disease fighting cells our bodies need to survive naturally, is truly the way to attack this dreaded disease? I’m no doctor but that seems very Machiavellian and short sighted to me.
Since you said you are not a U.S. resident, in our country it is perfectly acceptable for anyone to give their own viewpoint and say what they feel, especially if their intention is to help others. We are protected by the Bill of Rights of which Freedom of Speech is a fundamental right.
As far as personally attacking someone in this message board, the likeliness of someone over the age of 10 not having been touched by this disease is remote. Almost everyone knows someone who has passed away from or is currently suffering from some form of Cancer. Before you personally assume you know the intentions of another poster consider this; someone might assume that you lost someone close to you from an unorthodox treatment and that’s why you are so passionate about your postings and have daggers for proponents of such treatments. It doesn’t mean it’s true, does it?
I don’t have the answer, nor am I the person to find a cure for this dreaded disease, but I do know that squashing someone else’s idea, even one that you feel is invalid, stops the discussion. The only way to vanquish Cancer is to continue the discussion, add more viewpoints, share information & be willing to accept another’s idea – unorthodox or not.
