I would say that it should be left up to the family. There is a variable here called faith. There has been some remarkable "miracles" in the past with people getting better "out of the blue" that were otherwise left for dead. Many would argue their faith was at work. This is not my view point on these "miracles". I think it's just random remission under cicumstances beyond our current knowledge. My point is, there is no guarenteed death untill their dead. [/QUOTE] LK those rare miracles are just that...RARE. They don't happen often and when they do, they get a lot of press. If you have an N Stage Lymphoma you are toast for all intents and purposes...and there are not many people who survive an unchecked brain tumor....or Bone cancer.....Faith is good, but there is also the theory "God helps those who help themselves".
