everyone can appreciate what you are going through as
most of our parents have been trough the same thing to
a greater or lesser degree.
to extend the questions of doctors interfering with
nature, they all do. when one took the polio vacine
nature was being interfered with, the flu and
pneumonia vacines interfered with nature. chemo and
x ray interferes with nature, organ transplants
interfere with nature. antibiotics, really all of what
we know as modern medicine interferes with nature.
where does it cease being good and becomes evil?
