with

> On the morning of Sept. 12, Null read on KPFK, a Pacifica

station

> the Cancer Control Society annual convention during the Labor Day

> weekend. They had discussed this persecution by Big Brother in the

to

accept

> that because her doctor doesn't believe that's possible.

> The initial biopsy of the mole was done in February. Their regular

insisted

> he needed surgery to excise the site within a week, or he could die

> any day now! This doctor is a general practitioner, not an

oncologist

> or qualified to do cancer diagnosis or surgery. Chad and his mom

> decided to pursue holistic treatment for him. Incensed, the doctor

> reported her to Child Protective Services on the grounds of gross

> negligent child endangerment. She yelled at Laurie " all of you

> Jehovah's Witnesses are all the same, " never mind Laurie and Chad

are

> not Jehovah's witnesses. Dr. Masciana also told Laurie, with her son

> present, that his death was imminent. At the close of the

appointment,

> Dr. Masciana informed Laurie that she was referring the case to

Social

> is a misnamed government agency whose employees get paid bonuses

every

> time they take children away from their parents.

>

> That evening Laurie called an attorney who advised her that she had

48

> hours or less before Social Services showed up. If she could not

prove

> she was following doctor's orders, they'd take her son. Since Dr.

> Masciana had created such a traumatic experience for Chad, he feared

> the doctors and threatened to run away. In honoring Chad's wishes

for

> continued holistic care, Laurie took her son to San Diego to

continue

> holistic care using a number of various alternative treatments such

> as: ozone, hyperbaric oxygen chamber, hydrogen peroxide, energy

work,

> Rife, nutritional supplements, and deep emotional work. Laurie also

> used " black salve " that she purchased from Canada to remove the mole

> tissue. Black salve was developed by Native American Indians more

than

> 200 years ago, and used in the treatment of skin lesions, cancers,

> warts, and moles. Figures our FDA banned it, because it works.

>

> When Chad insisted on hitting the road to continue alternative

> therapies and getting further diagnostics, that left a question as

to

> where Laurie's daughter Crystal would go. A close friend of the

family

> and Crystal's best friend agreed, and this felt like a perfect fit

> under the circumstances, so Laurie legally signed Crystal over to

the

> family and gave them all the necessary medical insurance

information.

> On May 22, the local sheriff and CPS had taken her daughter out of

> class, interrogating her mercilessly, telling her lies about her

> mother, trying to force her to reveal where Laurie and Chad had

gone,

> and then forced her to go on a police joy ride and show them where

> they reside. All of this was done against her will and carried on

for

> six hours!

>

> They applied " Black Salve " directly to the area in question, thus

> giving Chad a holistic version of a large border excision. It took

> about two and a half weeks for the wound to heal. When it was healed

> Laurie took Chad to a Del Mar dermatologist for a biopsy. The test

> results were negative of any signs of melanoma! The next two weeks

> were concentrated on once again healing the tissue to get another

> biopsy. Upon the wound site being healed, a melanoma specialist did

a

> punch biopsy and a complete lab analysis on Friday, June 15. Again,

no

> sign of cancer could be found in the biopsy and the blood work was

in

> healthy ranges with no distinguishing markers that would otherwise

be

> present in a patient that would have advanced stage four melanoma,

as

immune

the

> melanoma?

>

> The following Monday, June 18th, Laurie and Chad turned themselves

in

> to the San Diego Social Services office, with all of their

> documentation. They were detained for 4 hours, then told that arrest

> warrants for Laurie and Chad were issued from Orange County. Chad

was

> locked up at the Palenskie Center in San Diego for one night. He

had 2

> guards watching him around the clock, since he was considered a

flight

privacy,

> as both guards listened to every word that was said. Laurie spent

over

> nine thousand bucks in San Diego for the treatments done over the

five

> worker, Harper, was put on the case. He picked Chad up in San

> Diego transporting him to Orangewood Children's Home in Orange

County

> for the next two weeks, where he got fed spaghetti and meat balls,

> food not fitting one healing from cancer. One aspect of Chad's

> treatment was a healthy diet of living foods, but Ms. Jessop's

> requests of this social worker that Chad get proper food fell on

deaf

> ears. He did tell her she was allowed to see her daughter graduate

> without a court order, and that she would be there! The social

worker

> informed Laurie that he completed the paper work to lift the warrant

> After her daughter's graduation, on June 21st Laurie went to make

school.

> Laurie showed the documentation to the principal and vice principal.

project

or

telephone

the

> her knee, when she complained they called out " Resisting…Resisting "

> then they pushed her violently to a cell wall (behind the cameras)

> causing her to twist her neck, shoulder and arm. After being worked

> over, they took away her jacket, shoes, socks, and toilet paper, and

> locked her up. Her holding cell was extremely cold and she was

> deliberately denied toilet paper. She asked for toilet paper, only

to

> be answered it must have been taken for good reason and she was not

> until 11:00pm. One has to wonder, what was she going to do with the

> toilet paper, hang herself? By 11:00 pm Laurie got taken to be

running

to

she'd

probably

an

under

trying to clear

This is the only other item I could find after a search. But there is a link to

a site regarding another similar case. From what I read that case changed the

law. So although there is not much about it yet, it seems there will be. I do

recall hearing something about this one before though. And none of it surprises

me. Even though it makes no sense to force chemo etc on a perfectly healthy

boy.
