First step is to get a faciliator who doesn't speak Flemish and see how good the results are. Then ask him questions while his facilitator is out of the room.

Then fire the doctors who fell for this and feel really bad for the family desperately grasping at straws and taken in by a con.
Hmmm - the NPR interview with the MD made it sound like they conducted tests to rule out facilitated communication.
