I NEED YOUR HELP WITH LAWSUIT AGAINST THE WATCHTOWER
by SHUNNED FATHER ini need your help to continue my lawsuit against the watchtower society and the doctor who the watchtower society arranged for to give my daughter arsenic.
the wts lawyer, hlc members and the doctor deceived bethany and lied to her, convincing her that arsenic would cure her.
bethany was convinced that arsenic could cure her and was curing her.

Careful, Eduardo!
I thought the use of arsenic was strange but then in googling it, it turns out that the use of arsenic has shown promise in treatment. (just one citation)
If I'm not mistaken, Bethany did not have APL which is a rare form of Leukemia from which my mother suffered. APL is a sub-category of AML - acute myeolytic leukemia.
The above-cited article states (highlights mine) :
"We confirmed the Chinese results that there's very high incidence of complete clinical remissions in patients who are treated with the use of low doses of arsenic trioxide with this type of leukemia," said Warrell.
Although there are very few side effects associated with the treatment, experts say caution is warranted because in higher doses, arsenic can be deadly.
"There have been reports of toxic neuro effects, kidney effects and we're going to have to be careful as we increase the doses in clinical trials," said Dr. Robert Gallagher of the Montefiore Medical Center, who wrote an accompanying editorial to the study published in the current issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.
Memorial Sloan-Kettering researchers are expected to ask the Food and Drug Administration next year to approve the use of arsenic trioxide as a treatment for APL.
-----------
This means any studies thus far have been very limited, that in the US at least, arsenic trioxide has NOT been approved for use in treatment of APL by the government. I suppose it would bear investigating if it has been so in Canada, but Lawrence seems to have conferred with Canadian MD's who are unsupportive of its use.
If I've learned anything while battling my own cancer, it's to be wary of press reports on studies because journalists try to distill the rather complex information down into pro or con semi-sensational bites for the generally uninformed public. Case in point: Herceptin the Breast Cancer wonder drug reported on (again!) a couple of months ago. Only less than 30% of all breast cancer patients have the kind (sub-category) of breast cancer that would be responsive to Herceptin, and while it is a godsend to those women, it is by no means a cure, which was the way it was being touted by the media.
Anyway, thanks for the bttt, Hubert.
Lawrence, I'm only able to do a tiny part, myself, this month, but may be able to help you more later on. Paypal would be most convenient for me, too.
Courage, my friend!

My daughter is in Florida and phoned me the other day to tell me that I should come visit her soon. I can't afford to (she's at college) and anyway, I also have school and medical treatments here, but I miss her TERRIBLY! It was really nice to know that she misses her mommy, too!

My Brother Counsels My Mother About Her Sister & Me
by minimus inmonths ago my aunt told my mother that because she associated with me and she knew what my stand for the "truth" was, that she must stop associating with me because her association with me was a way for "the demons" to get to my mother who could then go to my aunt and others.
my aunt told my mom that if she didn't stop her association that she couldn't continue with seeing her own sister on a weekly basis.
my mom will be 80 this summer and my aunt is 82. my mother told her that she would not stop seeing her (1) son that "takes care of her" and that if my aunt's conscience was demanding of her to refrain from association, then so be it.

Disgusting, despicable!!!! But I agree that at the outset it was difficult to tell which lawyer was alamb's attorney. That is what is so frustrating in these cases -- trying to get the lawyers to comprehend the morass that is the Jehovah's Witness religion. They are hired for their expertise, but they really have NONE when it comes to the religion, so the usual direct examination and cross is invariably weak. If I needed a lawyer, I'd be the first to hire AuldSoul (when he's ready). Meantime, I'm glad that judge had tons of documentation to give the background and the brochure to make it clear the elder was perjuring himself.
Sickening!
