I have no problem with Jobs choosing for himself what treatment path to pursue.

I have a lot of problem with the FDA limiting treatment options only to therapies that ring the cash registers of the government/corporate medical complex.

Come on now. Of course I believe in Jobs' right to choose for himself what treatment path to pursue. I never said otherwise, although I can understand why you might have inferred that from my wording.

I don't have any problem with anyone choosing how to handle a situation. That's the essense of freedom.

I've had cancer. I had surgery for it in January 2006, and I've (so far) survived. I was fortunate to have a great medical team, and am alive today because of them.

I consider myself an intelligent and fairly well-educated person, but I followed their advice, and still have my life to show for it.
