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.
My lament was simply, on a personal level, that his choice took him away from me, and from all of us, much earlier than might have been the case.
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.
The government/corporate cancer treatment industry doesn't want a "cure."
That would destroy their cash cow and make their current investment in such therapies worthless.
The only way they are going to allow a "cure" is if they own it and get to harness the cash flow.
And they have no problem with perverting the rule of law to steal what they want.
The link I gave before documents this.
