Not really....12 yrs. ago a family member was paying $500. per treatment session for Cancer...once a week for three months and not near as serious as this case seems to be. The medication, one pill daily to keep them from vomiting, was $1,500 a month.

So I can believe in this case the costs would be that today.

that doesn't justify the price then nor now...the asinine markup in the medical field has no defense, other than tort reform....if the treatment doesn't work, you should not be able to sue for millions...
