... I was just stunned at how determined Big Pharma, the FDA, and the Texas Medical Board were to remove Burzynski from society at any cost (all charged to the taxpayers), even though they knew his cancer treatment was/is effective and completely nontoxic. I was equally stunned by how egregiously crooked, underhanded, and deceitful they were in the way they went after him -- cancer patients died as a result of their underhandedness, yet, so far as I know, no charges have been brought against them. These are people who belong in prison.

to quacks and the kids die and the families have no money. We had one come from another country and the family lost EVERYTHING. They sold their home. We gave this child free care from our nonprofit hospice because they gave everything they had to some quack from Texas. Yes, he died. A coworker who is new to our hospice had similar experiences with this doctor.

You know what? I know some of the pediatric oncologists who do cancer research. They aren't evil. They aren't super wealthy. Oh and in the past 25 years pediatric cancer survival has gone from 40% to 80% http://www.curesearch.org/Research/Index.aspx. Yes, they have long term effects sometimes and malignant brain tumors are much harder to treat than leukemia. But, the outlook has gotten much better in the 20 years I have been a pediatric nurse.

... then you know the colossal, protracted multimillion dollar unfounded smear campaign against Dr. Burzynski, all financed with taxpayer dollars, simply didn't work. Do you really think the links you posted are going to accomplish what the combined efforts of Big Pharma, the FDA, and the Texas Medical Board couldn't? Sorry Mucifer, but I think you're just going to have to accept that sometimes the good guys actually win.

it's not cheap. They ended up in a country foreign to them with relatives helping them. They had to use indigent funds from our nonprofit hospice to get their medical expenses paid for. This man has their money. They could have been in their own country with more family support when he died. I understand you might think I'm a troll. I don't care. There are others like my patient.

... where does one go to find inexpensive cancer treatment? You provide an anecdotal tale insufficient in detail to allow for any independent confirmation expecting what exactly? To scare people away from the Burzynski Clinic?

You sound like the employee of an organization that feels threatened by Dr. Burzynski and continues to remain steeped in angry denial over the groundbreaking implications of his work.

Like it or not Mucifer, cancer treatment is evolving toward much safer and effective remedial therapies thanks to the efforts of people like Dr. Burzynski, and despite, to their great shame, the efforts of Big Pharma and the FDA. Smear as a means of stopping this evolutionary advancement has not worked. Perhaps you could be of greater service to your employer if, rather than engaging in unfounded and clearly ineffective smear, you simply report back and explain that they're supposed to be in the HEALING business, NOT the chemo and radiation business.
