This case caught my attention while I was in Florida. I have mixed feelings on it.
On one hand, even though I am not a huge supporter of a lot of modern medicine because it seems to ignore natural and holistic plus I feel chemotherapy is toxic, it has been proven to save lives. I still think there are better less toxic methods but chemo has worked. On the other hand it is scary that a court can not only force a person to take a medication but it can mandate that a parent only have contact with their child during certain times.
A part of me wonders if the state is only forcing this because of money. Who is paying for these treatments?
