Made four years ago of breast cancer at the hospital of Santarcangelo, Rimini, has refused chemotherapy to treat with packs of ricotta and decoctions of nettle, a woman of 34 years old, mother of two children, died yesterday morning. This is stated in the Resto del Carlino.



The story is reminiscent of the 18-year-old padua who died of leukemia, after parents and she herself had rejected the chemo supporting the 'method Hamer', the former German doctor banished from the Order for his theories on alternative medicine. In Rimini the attempts of the family of the patient and the surgeon who operated on them to change their mind are not served to nothing. Now the family want to understand which roads you can take, in order to evaluate if there are responsibilities on the part of a man who advised her on how to fight the cancer with strange natural remedies.



"His," explained dr. Domenico Samorani, head of breast Surgery at the hospital of Santarcangelo - was a tumor for which the chances of recovery was 93-95% at five years from surgery, provided that to do the chemo. But she refused from the very beginning. And' round in the department three months ago because she was sick: we did the checks, but the metastases were all over the body. I repeated the chemotherapy, we still had a few chances to stop it but she continued to refuse". "The cases of people who reject traditional treatments to rely on strange people and dangerous theories of recovery are on the increase - adds the expert - Are at least ten women who, in these last three years have refused to radio and chemo despite being sick with cancer: they are all dead".
