Canadian girl dead after abandoning chemo for faith based alternative

Tragic ignorance: Makayla Sault, an 11-year-old Canadian girl who refused chemotherapy treatments in favor of faith based alternatives after “seeing a vision of Jesus,” is dead.
Suffering from acute lymphoblastic leukemia, Sault had a 75% chance of survival with chemotherapy. However, Sault, under the guidance of her parents, petitioned her doctors to stop chemotherapy treatments after her “vision of Jesus.”
The treating hospital referred Sault’s case to the authorities,who ultimately decided that Sault would be allowed to abandon modern medicine for ineffective alternative treatments, effectively sentencing the child to death.
