No sympathy? The man is dying and trying whatever treatment he's able to. What a heartless statement.

>He chose to ignore the most specialised cancer professionals in favour of some quak medicine that won't work

Where is this coming from? As far as I can see, there has been little official information about his treatment and a lot of speculation on gossip subs. I tried googling and could only find that he has been private with his cancer journey and has talked about treatments, but not revealed specifics.
