Comments about love for the child are usually backwards.

Cancer is my most likely death, somewhat inherited from both of my parents,
and not easily prevented due to chemicals in our environment and food. But I
know very well that Chemotherapy is by far the least effective treatment in
most of the world. If I, or my children, had cancer, I would 100% refuse
chemotherapy, for the same reason these parents did. They did what they could
to find a much better alternative, for which they proved more love than most
parents ever have.

You are un-informed.

Based on what, your comic book knowledge of science?

The parents began and the chemo was working and the size of the
tumors had been reduced.

First, tumor reduction can and does occur without chemo. Second,
tumor size is not well correlated to extended survival times. Third,
chemo increases the odds of secondary cancers. Fourth, chemo
depresses natural immune function, which increases the risk of death
from opportunisitic infection.

The parents then listened to non-medical personal, and took their son
off of chemo. The tumors got bigger than they were before the cancer
was diagnosed.

Unfortunately, shrinking tumors does not mean the cancer is going
away.

The chemo was working evidence by the images of the tumors having
gotten smaller.

There is no other treatment which works for this type of cancer.

That you know of. Of course, it's not relevant because forced
medication is still equivalent to rape, or would be in a real
democracy.

A lot of this I learned with this kind of thinking from my injury. I refused
American drugs prescribed to me, and tried to force on by government
authorities with workman's compensation. If I did not refuse this and use
alternatives, I would be as disabled as doctor's expected. Instead, I am
completely recovered and back to excellent health, which no person believed
possible.

anecdotal at best.

I'll take his anecdote over your prescribed rape.
