To those who say there is no cure for cancer, WAKE UP! There are many forms of cancer, and lots of those are more than just manageable, they are in fact CURABLE. The boy's parents, like the boy, and like some readers, are ignorant of the advances made in treating and CURING many cancers. The boys comments, just as his parent's actions, were based on a lack of education. Man! You'd think that with all of the information available today, SOME people would bother to READ it! That boy owes his life to the judge who forced him into treatment, and some day he'll be grateful.

What is it about the "magical" number 18 that when you turn that number of years suddenly you're an adult who can make choices for yourself but before that magic birthday you are a helpless little child who cannot think for yourself and need to be forced to do what grownups decide for you?

i have a lot of thoughts and oppinons about this but one stands out the most: Does it really matter what is makin him better, atleast he is showing improvements!! I would have hated to be the judge in fear of violating the parents rights to their religious beliefs. Although This child is too young to make that decision or is he? How old does he have to be to exercise his religious beliefs? I do not recall an age limit on the costitution! I will say thank God the judge ordered it! I hope the kid gets cured so he can live healthy. Maybe the family should think of the countrys that can't offer treatment. Or what about our country where people die from a cold because they don't have money for a doctor visit. They also should take a trip to any cancer hospital and see what other children are goin through"much much worse" God bless them!

Is it true that most people who take alternative treatments only do so because they've gone through a lot of conventional chemo, radiation, and/or surgery and it has nearly killed them but conventional doctors offer nothing else and their insurance won't pay for any alternative therapy, and only after being put through all of that do they finally turn to the alternative as a last resort, and often then it is too late to save them from the damage done by chemo etc., but conventional medicine then points to those cases as "proof" that alternative therapies don't work, yet they never say that in the countless cases when chemo/radiation/surgery do not save lives?

I don't think anyone gets what really going on here. We as people have the freedom of choice so regardless of your opinions, it should be the parents decision. The goverment doesn't have the legal right under the constitution to do this. If we allow this, what's next? They going to tell us when we can leave our house? It's no ones business but theirs. If the kid dies, it's sad but it's their choice. Chemo is toxic and it's not unreasonable to think that people might be scared of it. I certainly am. Chemo & radiation KILLED my aunt before the cancer. How can we say the oncologist was right? I see cancer doctors die of cancer all the time.

THERE IS NO CURE FOR CANCER AND TO FORCE SOMEONE TO TAKE THESE TREATMENTS OF POISON IS INHUMANE..SOME PEOPLE ARE MORE EVOLVED THAN OTHERS..IN THIS CASE THE FAMILY OBVIOUSLY ISNT ATTACHED TO GETTING TORTURED AS SO CALLED TREATMENT FOR CANCER..SOME SMART PEOPLE WOULD RATHER LIVE TILL THE END WITH NO TREATMENT RATHER THAN BE A TEST RAT FOR THIS MONEY MAKING CREATED DISEASE CALLED CANCER..I THINK THIS JUDGE IS AN IDIOT AND THIS BOY SHOULD BE LEFT ALONE..I AM PRAYING THAT HE WILL BE!..
