I agree Dave. I applaud the BC government for allowing the family to bring her to the states for treatment. Nice first step.

This is the second very public case in Canada over the past few years. One hopes that the government will eventually see the need to bring Blood Avoidance protocols into general use.

It's a shame that good medicine, good results and higher-level patient care isn't always enough to motivate change.


By the way, I was interviewed by the CBC last week. They wanted to know whether there were other treatements available. I mentioned Rainbow in Cleveland, Childrens of Central California, St Christophers in Philly. The reporter didn't realize that here in the states many children's hospitals have established protocols for non-blood treatment of children.


Perhaps the press in Canada will influence some change there. http://www.noblood.org/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif
