I'm all for people making their own decisions about what to do with their own bodies. I'm also sure that many of the "alternatives" to medicine are pure BS.
However sad this case appears, what Neph brings up is fact: he's a minor, and the reason that these kinds of courts even exist is to try and guarantee the best possible life for minors. To put it another way, I'm not sure I can even see some nefarious reason or hidden agenda behind the judge's decision, other than he thinks that chemo is the best way to pursue this particular type of cancer.
