https://www.foxnews.com/us/florida-pare ... l-remediesThe parents of a 4-year-old Florida boy suffering from leukemia — and who "refused" to allow their son to undergo chemotherapy — will not regain custody of the child, a judge ruled Monday.
Joshua McAdams, 28, and Taylor Bland-Ball, 22, intentionally deprived their son, Noah, of legitimate medical treatment and sought natural remedies after he was diagnosed with cancer in April, according to Judge Thomas Palermo, who said there is “imminent risk of neglect” if the boy stays with his parents.

This is typically what happens if the parents refuse to treat an illness. Medical neglect.

His treatment will likely have a three year period. Hopefully they don’t get custody back before this time period. I had a friend whose three year old had luekemia and is now 7 years old and free from cancer.
I love their defense, we think fresh food and weed will cure him!

Hopefully he will have a fighting chance now that he is back on chemo.

Good, Now, I wish the courts would get more serious about taking custody away from parents on drugs.

Idiots. They should ask Steve Jobs how those “natural remedies” worked for him. Oh, wait....
