I Side With The Amish

From the New York Daily News:
An 11-year-old Amish girl is in hiding after an Ohio court ruled the girl must listen to medical professionals and continue chemotherapy - treatments her parents don’t want because they make her sick.
Sarah Hershberger’s parents would rather pursue natural treatment for the little girl, who has battled leukemia since April.
And those treatments may be working. A family members say recent scans show the girl is cancer-free after the family returned from a natural cancer treatment center in Central America.
“She’s a vibrant, healthy girl,” Isaac Keim told the Akron Beacon Journal.
The parents at first took the advice of medical professionals at Akron Children’s Hospital and started the girl on a two-year chemotherapy treatment when she was diagnosed.
The drugs appeared to work: the tumors on her neck, chest and kidneys diminished in size as the chemicals took effect.....
Without the chemo, doctors say girl could die within a year.
The family tells ABC they are willing to take that risk.
"If we do chemotherapy and she would happen to die, she would probably suffer more than if we would do it this way and she would happen to die," her father told ABC this summer.

Who knows what best for their children than their parents?  Certainly not the doctors.
And apparently, the medical treatment the parents decided for their child is working and that still is not good enough for the doctors in Ohio?
This is just another case where U.S. doctors think they are smarter than the parents.
The Amish family provided good medical care for their child, it apparently worked and the Ohio doctors have to accept this fact and drop their case against the family.
