I would like to correct Dr. Pendleton’s closing statement. “The bottom line is actually access to proper medical care.”

When medical care is not sufficient, many times people die needlessly. This fact still remains a fact no matter how you slice it. What is truly unfortunate is that groundbreaking and revolutionary natural medical research is being suppressed. When this research is suppressed, it is the patient that suffers, not the professionals that are in charge of dealing out their medicine. Unless of course, the patients family finds the strength to stand up to the injustice of the medical system that took their loved one away from them, which is an event that shouldn’t even have happened to begin with had the medical community been more open minded and been willing to do their job right.

The statement “change comes about so slowly” is not good enough, nor will it soothe the broken heart of a child’s mother while she is forced to stand at the graveside of her baby only to have to go home and try to pick up the pieces of more than one shattered life.

The bottom line is that when the “medicine” doesn’t cure, it’s time to find what does and this fact will inevitably cut into the profit margin of doctors who aren’t ready for the change that must take place. After all, the body does heal itself if only given the chance, and there is nothing that man can create and patent that God hasn’t already given us a safer and cheaper form.
