Yes, CO was there and was her usual self. That woman has more empathy, for a wider range of people, than anyone I have ever known. It's completely unforced, like breathing. Quite remarkable. I wish I had some of it.

Hope you all had a great time. Was CO there and in fine fettle? On Friday, November 29, 2013 9:38 AM, feste37 <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> wrote: Share, make Google your friend!

Fair enough. Plenty of belief systems refuse blood transfusions. I've known TMers who say they would refuse any sort of transplant because they don't want someone else's karma. In fact, I've known people who died because they chose "alternative" healthcare. Alternative to things that work it would seem. This is why I say natural selection works on the religious too. Not cruel at all, or at least no crueller than it is for you and me. Maybe if I'd read article.... That's a very cruel comment. I'm on the side of the parents. Since when does the state have the right to inflict chemotherapy on people who don't want it? The family has every right to choose an alternative method of treatment. This is supposed to be the land of the free. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> wrote: That's a very cruel comment. I'm on the side of the parents.

It appears to me that the girl and her family have the right to forego the treatment if that is their religious preference to do so. http://news.yahoo.com/ohio-amish-girl-cuts-off-contact-amid-chemo-161240343.html http://news.yahoo.com/ohio-amish-girl-cuts-off-contact-amid-chemo-161240343.html
