Eighteen more had expected survival rates of greater than 50 percent. All but three of the remainder would likely have had some benefit from clinical help." Prayer and medication often work better than prayer alone.
Remember folks.... survival rate means that there is breathing and a heartbeat.... severe brain damage or huge amounts of painful proceedures followd by increasing incapacity are not factored in. An Amish family I was aware of lost custody of their infant for experimatnal chemo purposes. The child had a always fatal cancer and the hospical wanted to prolong the poor souls life at great phycical costs. The parents preference was to take the child home and care for it until death. There are many of us who believe that we are to live as long as we are given but that we are not to fear death for it is just a prelude.

Get a clue. If you're an adult and can't spell or construct a grammatically correct sentence how can your children hope to get a decent education??!!
