Ilena - Laetril is a poison!  I knew that then, and I know it now!
There is no change in my stance on that opinion.

And yes, my mother remained in control of her life - up and until the
moment of her death!  And, I believe most patients should be able to
share that same kind of control over health issues in their lives.
However, I also know that reliable and accurate information is
paramount in making wise decisions to implement that "control."

When fraudulent, and dangerous treatments are foisted on the public,
there is more in play than one's mere selection of tratments and
treatment protocols.

An example: We must remember that you and your Humantics Foundation
hosted a tea party where you promoted a "proven cure". . .What was in
that "Proven Cure for Silicone victims" that you helped huckster at
the infamous Humantics Tea Party.  You remember the one - Where Dr.
Haimes and Weston were doing their thing?

Where was the proof in the "proven cure."  Had it been approved by the
FDA.  Where was the studies, and test surrounding the product.  Where
are the disclosures that disclose what the product consisted of???

Dr. Haimes was reprimanded by Florida, and based on that reprimand,
New York yanked his license
