Burzynksi

An excellent example of every kind of argument for alternative medicine, including the "do you have kids", the "it's all about money", the "big pharma", and many more old favourites. Mrs. Bopp is Mrs. Kate Bopp - an election candidate from 2011, and law student.

    A #burzynski victim from Ireland - a toddler has passed away after eschewing chemo for quackery. http://t.co/0DubE6H6

    @zenbuffy That article doesn't confirm that cause of death was due to #burzynski treatment. In fact it states that she responded well to it

    @mrs_bopp It states that they opted to not use conventional chemotherapy in favour of #burzynski and also that she has passed away. You can

    @mrs_bopp say she "responded well" to it, but the fact remains that she clearly was not cured, since she has died. #burzynski

    @zenbuffy I am not sure what kind of 1st hand experience you have had with cancer but that is quite an ill informed remark #burzynski

    @mrs_bopp My father is currently battling cancer for the 2nd time, having relapsed after just 5 months. So, plenty, as it happens.

    @mrs_bopp I'm perfectly aware of the intricacies of cancer treatment, but #burzynski doesn't claim to treat, he claims to cure.

    @mrs_bopp You're right, I clearly don't love my father dearly and have never lost anyone to cancer. Oh no, wait, those are both lies.

    @mrs_bopp family member to cancer. Chemo might have helped, or it might not have, but #burzynski obviously didn't.

    @zenbuffy .....enough a blow & they don't need to read/hear something somewhere that will make them agonize even more over the choice made

    @mrs_bopp Do you honestly think that it's better for people to spend their life savings on quack treatments? Honestly?

    @mrs_bopp Is it not you who campaigned on a platform of, among other things, health reform? Is this the health reform that you seek?

    @mrs_bopp of actual medicine. Their children died. Is it better that we don't make them agonize over their decision too?

    @mrs_bopp This is an ill-thought out, knee-jerk argument that has no basis in fact, nor consideration of the reality of this, or similar >

    @zenbuffy Do your research b4 you go on the offensive. Chemo wld have meant agonizing & certain death for the little toddler. You have kids?

    @mrs_bopp Ah yes, the "you don't have kids therefore don't know what it's like" argument. Excellent, excellent.

    @zenbuffy You mention *similar* situations. They tend to vary. Treatment tailors to different specifics. DNA treatment has a success rate...
