Court forcing 16 yr old with cancer into chemo

But how do you really feel about it, Alex?

Actually, I agree. I'm too much of a realist not to. Show me as many facts as you can, and I'm a happy consumer, but don't tell me that your best friend's brother's MIL ate nothing but brown rice and tofu for a year and is now cured of her uterine cancer. I'm real happy for her, but not quite convinced that it's enough proof for me should I land in the same boat. I'm also very skeptical of meds that have been subjected to studies, in that studies are like statistics- any company with enough motivation can warp them to show whatever the hell they want. (Some experience in that area).

Let's face it- I trust no one....
