She and her parents, Ken and Sonya Sault, have decided to forgo chemotherapy and instead use traditional medicine to fight leukemia.

Idiots

while I don’t think chemo is always the best way, there are other good methods, some quite a bit better, but I think their idea of traditional wouldn’t apply.

Poor girl, but in the end it’s her choice, and I pray she either has Jesus, or finds him before it’s too late.

I take traditional Chinese medicines,,,, sometimes. Even my Chinese herb doc knows when to go to a “Western” doctor!

Just read the entire article, it does sound like she met Jesus, in which case she’s trusting God, and that’s always the best medicine for anything. He’s in control.

The Saults won’t elaborate on the exact medicine Makayla is using but they feel it is already working.

Let me guess: Rattles, a guy wearing a buffalo head chanting and prancing around, and handfuls of powder that go "WHOOSH" when thrown into the campfire.

Poor little girl!

Regards,

Does that have a statistically better recovery rate than chemotherapy?

I had lung cancer and told the oncologist to shove his chemo and radiation up his ass!

I wish more towns here would do this. And not just for forced medical issues.

“Let me guess: Rattles, a guy wearing a buffalo head chanting and prancing around, and handfuls of powder that go “WHOOSH” when thrown into the campfire.”

Oh, MDs have their pristine white outfits, their posturing, handfuls of pharmaceutical poisons that routinely are the third leading cause of death in America, along with advice that kills people, and their motto that “nothing heals like cold, hard steel.”

I’ve seen both. Campfires are nice.

Or perhaps turkeytail mushrooms. Look it up.

Or maybe extendo time in a sweat lodge? “Spontaneous remission” of cancer frequently follows an episode of high fever. Look that up, too.

Don’t trust me. Look it up.

Adults? Fine.Kids? No way! In a case here in Boston years ago the Christian Scientist parents of a little girl with cancer said the only treatment the girl would get would be some kind of prayers called for by that religion.The state said “no way”,after hearing testimony from many physicians.

Hell no, I killed a tumor in each lung with pills a friend makes and a third one with cyberknife and have been clean for 3 years.

Cemo and radiation is for idiots, if the cancer doesn’t kill you the treatment will.
