I understand, because of your mother you know more, you lived it. This could be one of your projects - to oblige Anna and others who at your view are spreading information pollution to put a disclaimer. Who knows what adventure it can be, what discoveries may come at the light.
And a friend of mine simply refused chemotherapy, when cancer came back on her bones ..... she also refused a shaman who was assisting her first time united with chemotherapy, and breath cancer stage 4, she was diagnosed to have 3-4 months ..but she survived... 5 year later it returned.. she never knew Anna, it was her choice..........
"My experience working in hospices means I have had this kind conversation a few times. There is also a male vs female view of things. I am very male, practical solution to problem first. Mars, Venus etc. etc."

The most of them are men..
It is all about duality inside of us - if the concept of reincarnation is acceptable by you - for me it is fact, then we all born once a man, once a woman, changing backgrounds, races, places and so on until will get the whole lesson. I am against all this feminism, but I believe in order to be happy and whole we should recognize a presence of both poles in us, like this great poet
Your thought,
dreaming on a softened brain,
like a long-lost valet on a soiled couch,
I will tease about a bloodied heart flap:
I am getting rid of my satiety, brash and caustic.

Want to -
I will be mad with flesh
- and, like the sky, changing the tone -
want to -
I will be impeccably gentle,
not a man, but a cloud in his pants!

"She give some detail here in another interview it took me a while to find.
She saw a friend die of a completely different cancer. Cancer & chemo scared her so she went to a naturapath instead of conventional treatment.
"I was living in a lot of fear at that time – fear of the cancer, and fear of chemo. I cleaned up my diet, did colon therapy, and took all the pills the naturapathic doctor gave me. "
Thank you for finding this interview, but where is the problem here, she simply revealing her fears and her experiences and even saying that only natural way of healing did not work. I am the same, always curing with natural ways like Reiki, essential oils etc, but if some real thread I welcome antibiotics and whenever modern science is offering to stop illness.
And here I hope we will finish about Anna, it is too personal for both of us, especially for you. But I would love to hear if you really will feel to make her put a disclaimer and how it will be.
"Read the article I posted before discussing how when people like yourself are under stress they become highly vulnerable to con-artists.
https://www.theguardian.com/books/2...iew-new-book-the-confidence-game-review-scams"
I read it and ask you, please, stop trying to put me among stressed people and to explain my devotion to the spiritual openness by that. The people I mention in my previous post has nothing to do with con artists. I even cannot understand why Konnikova lost her time to find out about the topic, maybe to solve her own problems. Sometimes victictims are kind of hypnotized.
"The dirty secret is:
1. Insurance/lawyers force oncologists to over-prescribe.
2. Chemo is taken by patients it will not help who want to SHORTEN their lives, sometimes they don't tell their friends they chose a form of proxy assisted death.
My own mother went from diagnosis to death in four months. Had she not taken chemo she would have lived longer however she had a tiny, basically zero, chance with esophageal, metastasized to liver and lung it would help. Older people have seen long & drawn out deaths and most given a choice... So they take the fraction of a percent chance and leave the rest up to god.

Again very sorry for your mother...
and yes the pharmaceutical industry must be sued more.... as well all doctors hiding behind
"Watership Down is soon coming to Netflix. I liked Jonathan Livingstone Seagull which you mentioned as a kid a lot however, I also liked this little tale (tail) about rabbits. Richard Adams and Richard Bach."
Uups, sorry, missed Richard Adams, better late than never, will enjoy reading in next days. And will look forward to watching it with kids, thank you (they knew about Richard Adamas).
I admire also another Richard - Richard Dennis, his lifestyle and views and interviews to NYT sd, of course, turtles experiment! Then will be three Richards, perfect number, if you agree.
"For me JLS was not about if I used my imagination I would become a kind of faster-than-light-and-time being. That is what
Jonathan became in a story. JLF was about committing to a path bravely whether it went somewhere exceptional or not."
True.. it is the same for us..many here and in the world are not understanding why we are committed to our battle - because it came to us and we feel it is truth and justice
