I am fine today. Continue from yesterday…
It is very true that cancer is not a death sentence, but the content of the email is very misleading and irresponsible. It literally says that Dr. Lynn Tan’s Detoxification Rejuvenation is the RIGHT therapy to cancer because it makes your body heal itself. Not only this, it “dangerously” encouraged people to forward the mail to friends who are diagnosed with cancer.
A desperate cancer patient might treat this alternative therapy as his/her magic cure and thus delay the proper treatment, just like those who initiated the legal case against the father of detoxification. In fact, given a choice, I rather believe that this is true than going through the risky conventional treatment. But the question we need to ask is whether the approach works.
Given a testimony at particular instance, such as the one attached in the email, does not necessary reflect the effectiveness of the therapy. A cure can only be proclaimed if a cancer patient does not experience any elapse within 5 years upon treatment.
In addtion to this, a patient’s condition might fluctuate, and we can’t simply selectively capture the good time and use it as propaganda to lure people believing that the therapy works.
To be continued and see you next post :-)
