A year after Oscar Saxelby-Lee left Singapore following a life-saving experimental treatment at the National University Hospital, CNA spoke to his family to find out how he’s still conquering the odds. “He just does not give up.”When five-year-old British boy Oscar Saxelby-Lee came to Singapore in November 2019, he was staring death in the face.

With his body wrecked by an aggressive form of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, all treatment in the UK had failed and his parents were told to prepare for the worst.

They beat him with a stick and told him not to have cancer anymore.

Some good news.

Brings to mind the experimental treatment we are all getting for COVID (vaccine), but the decades-long proven-safe drugs can’t be used to “experiment” (IVM & HCQ).

“They beat him with a stick and told him not to have cancer anymore.”

Wouldn’t it be great if that worked?

But CAR-T is available in the UK. Why go to Singapore ? Oh right, because NHS won’t cover it and in Singapore it was probably available in a clinical trial (thus “experimental”)

The kid did not beat cancer — his benefactors did. The sooner he learns about humility and prayer and thanksgiving, the better for him. What will happen if the cancer returns? Poor kid. I wish him continuous health.

Perhaps voodoo, snake oil, smoke and mirrors
Perhaps even prayer
If the latter were the case, it would not be mentioned in the news. Too embarrassing for the MSM.
