    Had a colleague die from cancer, after being given a very good prognosis with treatment and declining all that because he read somewhere just getting a whole bunch of vitamin C would reverse cancer.

    His case he had a powerful personal anecdote, a brother he lost to cancer who did try the medical route and died after a miserable treatment course. He even acknowledged that the prognosis was dire for his brother from the onset, and they described medical intervention in the brother’s case as a long shot versus his being probably curable. We tried to share our own anecdotes about friends and family that were saved by cancer treatment, but ultimately nothing could overcome his personal experience seeing how much the medical treatments made his brother suffer and it failed to help in the end.
