Court forcing 16 yr old with cancer into chemo

[Morrigoon]

The parents put him back on chemotherapy after the cancer returned four months later.

My guess is the chemo might not have saved him the first go-around. Consider he was on chemo for 3 1/2 months, then pulled off, the cancer came back, they put him back on chemo, and he eventually died. So chemo didn't save him either. I know the question will be "What if he'd stayed on chemo the first time?", but I still this his survival was in question either way.
