That is your opinion, not mine. A 13-year-old is not a man, maybe in some third world country or something. He is a child in my eyes, and decisions have to be made for his well being. They are not offering him a 50/50 chance with this treatment. They are offering a 90-95% chance. What mom would say well I don't want to do the chemo, even though it is 90-95% probable to get rid of it, so I'll just go find some natural herb or something and experiment. What a genius. I have heard of cases of this type of cancer and these children living on into adulthood cancer free after going through chemo. I'd do what I had to do to get rid of the cancer. No brainer. God gave us brains. We need to use them. If there is something that has gotten rid of this type of cancer then by all means use it. Now if it is an adult and they want to die then so be it, but a child deserves a chance at life.
