Childhood Cancer Treatment Options. Do parents have a choice?

 

FaceBook post from diagnosis day Sept 2011

September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month

The childhood cancer statistics will say something like 85% cure rate, or 95% cure rate. This deceives us into believing that the medical industry is doing a good job at researching and finding cures for childhood cancers. But do you know that “cured” actually means 5-year survival rate? That means the child was cured for “at least” 5 years. What does that look like to a 4-year-old, who was part of that statistic of being cured, who then dies at age 11 do to secondary cancers caused from radiation and/or chemotherapy?

Just like most things that come from mainstream media, what is actually happening in the childhood cancer world is not what it seems.

I am not here to argue that lives are at times saved. My son survived a bone marrow transplant, and God used it to heal him completely of a break in his chromosome at the DNA level. But do you realize what me saying no to the transplant for 18 months, to believe God and naturopathic medicine, cost our family? It cost us his childhood. My son is alive and now back home, but do you know what 8 years of foster care will do to a child? Our “side effects” are not just with his organs and body systems as a result from high dose chemotherapy and transplant drugs, but the psychological effects of not having a family for 8 years. Of being ripped from his mom and everyone he knew while he was sick, and the words that ring in his ears from the government that he would never see his mom again….. “but you are safe now.” I can assure you that he was everything but safe.

I was asked at the end of our news interview in 2014, that I will post soon as an awareness for this month, if I had the choice to do over, would I do the transplant right away? Of course, I would have complied. My son lay on his deathbed at 7 years old with strangers by his side as I was banned from the hospital. Do you realize parents of children who get cancer DO NOT have a choice of treatment? You must do the standard protocol of surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, until your child is cured, or they die. If at any time you go against the doctor’s protocol, you risk CPS taking your child and the government being their guardian, thus giving the doctor permission to do whatever they want to your child.

This photo is from our news piece. I pasted in the photo of little Christopher Reign. That was the last time I would see him for 6 years, at a 2 hour CPS visit at the local McDonalds; he had lost his front tooth and I missed it... the government worker sitting there in the background with her laptop recording her version of what was taking place.

In the newsclip, the journalist asked Phoenix Children’s Hospital about me having a choice in my son's treatment. “Legal Authorized Representative” is what they call a parent now. You aren’t even mom or dad anymore. Our forefathers warned us about government overreach. When our politicians are saying they are there to help us raise our kids and it takes a village, we need to be on high alert. But people love this! They want their stimulus checks and to sit at home in fear of life while they don’t have to work and the government supports them. They want someone to make hard choices for them! They are so deceived and vote these career politicians into office.

What does it mean to us, and to our God, when our freedom of choice is taken away, and our bodies, our children’s very lives, are in the hands of the government and BIG PHARMA? It’s time to wake up.
