Umntwana osemncinci waseFlorida onomhlaza uselugcinweni lukarhulumente emva kokuba abazali bakhe bengakwazanga ukumzisa kunyango olucwangcisiweyo lwechemotherapy ngelixa babelandela ezinye iindlela zonyango.

UNowa ngumntwana oneminyaka emi-3 kaJoshua McAdams kunye noTaylor Bland-Ball. Ngo-Epreli, uNowa kwafunyaniswa ukuba une-acute lymphoblastic leukemia kwisibhedlele iJohns Hopkins Sonke saBantwana.

Uye wenziwa imijikelo emibini yechemotherapy esibhedlele, kwaye uvavanyo lwegazi alubonakalisi zimpawu zomhlaza, batsho abazali. Ngokobungqina benkundla kunye nezithuba zemithombo yeendaba zentlalo, esi sibini sasikwanika uNowa unyango lwe-homeopathic olufana neoyile ye-CBD, amanzi e-alkaline, iti ye-mushroom, kunye ne-extracts ye-herbal, kunye nokwenza utshintsho kwindlela atya ngayo.

Xa uNowa nabazali bakhe basilelayo ukuya kumjikelo wesithathu wonyango lwechemotherapy, amapolisa ahlaba umkhosi, ekhupha isilumkiso ‘ngomntwana olahlekileyo osengozini.

“Ngomhla wama-22 ka-Epreli, ngo-2019, abazali basilela ukuzisa umntwana kunyango oluyimfuneko lwesibhedlele,” yatsho iofisi kaSheriff yesithili saseHillsborough.

UMcAdams, uBland-Ball, noNoah bafunyanwa ngokukhawuleza eKentucky kwaye umntwana wasuswa elugcinweni lwabo. Ngoku bajongene nezityholo zokungahoywa kwabantwana. UNowa ukunye nomakhulu wakhe ongumama kwaye unokubonwa kuphela ngabazali bakhe ngemvume yeenkonzo zokukhusela umntwana.

Njengoko abazali bezabalazela ukufumana ilungelo lokukhulisa uNowa, eli tyala liphakamisa imibuzo ngokuphathelele ilungelo abanalo abazali lokumisela unyango xa lungqubana necebiso likagqirha.

IFlorida Freedom Alliance ibithetha egameni lesi sibini. Usekela mongameli weli qela kubudlelwane boluntu, uCaitlyn Neff, uxelele iBuzzFeed News ukuba lo mbutho umele inkolo, yezonyango kunye nenkululeko yomntu. Ngaphambili, iqela liye lenza iindibano ezichasa ugonyo olunyanzelekileyo.

“Ngokusisiseko bazibeke eluntwini ngokungathi bayabaleka, ngelixa bekungenjalo kwaphela,” utshilo.

UNef uxelele Iindaba zeBuzzFeed ukuba abazali babephambi kwaye baxelele isibhedlele ukuba bayayiyeka ichemotherapy ukuze balandele uluvo lwesibini kunyango lukaNowa.

Nangona kunjalo, ngokoogqirha abangakhange banyange uNowa kodwa bathetha ne-BuzzFeed News, ikhosi epheleleyo yechemotherapy yeyona ndlela yodwa eyaziwayo yokunyanga i-acute lymphoblastic leukemia, exhaswa ngamashumi eminyaka yophando kunye neziphumo zeklinikhi.

UGqr. Michael Nieder weZiko loMhlaza laseMoffitt eFlorida ukhethekileyo ekunyangeni abantwana abaneleukemia. Uthe i-acute lymphoblastic leukemia ngowona mhlaza ufunyaniswa uxhaphake ebantwaneni, kodwa unezinga lokunyanga elingama-90% kwabo balandela isicwangciso sonyango esiqhelekileyo ukuya kwiminyaka emibini enesiqingatha yechemotherapy.

“Xa unomgangatho wokhathalelo awufuni ukuzama ukuseka unyango olutsha olukhokelela ekubeni zibe mbalwa izigulana ezinyangekayo,” utshilo.

UNowa wayecwangciselwe unyango lwe-chemotherapy ngoLwesibini kwaye wayefumana i-pretreatment steroids, utshilo uNeff, nangona kungacaci ukuba wakwazi na ukuyifumana.

Abazali bakwalwela uvavanyo lomongo onokuthi ubonise ngakumbi ukuba uNowa uxolelwe, utshilo uNeff.

UGqr. Bijal Shah ukhokela inkqubo ye-acute lymphoblastic leukemia kwiZiko loMhlaza laseMoffitt kwaye wathi ngenxa yokuba umhlaza ungabonakali, akuthethi ukuba unyangekile. Uxolelo kuthetha ukuba isengabuya-kwaye iyeke unyango kwangoko, njengakwimeko kaNowa, yonyusa umngcipheko weeseli zomhlaza ezitsha kwakheka, ukusasazeka, kunye nokunganyangeki xa unyango luqala kwakhona.

Ukwathe wabona ubungqina bokuba unyango lwe-homeopathic, njengoNowa ebelufumana, lwenza nantoni na.

“Ndikhe ndabona [izigulane] zizama ukwenza unyango lwevithamin C, unyango lwesilivere, intsangu, unyango lwe-stem cell eMexico, i-algae eluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, ukutya okungenaswekile, ukubiza oko. Le nto ayizange isebenze kwizigulana zam,” utshilo uShah.

"Ukuba uyazi ukuba unonyango olusebenzayo oluya kunyanga i-90% yezigulana zakho, ngaba ungafuna ukwenza ithuba kwinto enophawu olukhulu lombuzo?"

UBland-Ball uqhubekile nokuthumela uhlaziyo kwityala lakhe kwiphepha lakhe likaFacebook, ngeevidiyo kunye nezithuba zebhlog ebongoza abasemagunyeni ukuba bavumele unyana wakhe ukuba abuyiselwe kukhathalelo lwakhe. Yena nomyeni wakhe baye babelana ngeengcinga zabo ngetyala elikwiMedium.

“Eli lixesha elinzima kwaye ndicinga ukuba abanye baba bantu bayalibala ukuba embindini wayo kukho inkwenkwana eneminyaka emi-3 ubudala ehluphekayo ngoku,” utshilo uNeff.

"Yonke into uTaylor noJosh abayifunayo kuye kukuba athathwe. Kulishwa ukuba isibhedlele kunye norhulumente bazama ukwandisa le nto. ”

UShah ukwathe ityala likaNowa lilishwa — akaphelelanga nje ekubeni lixhoba lomhlaza, kodwa ityala lakhe liyadlala kumajelo eendaba.

“Akukho mntu ufuna ukohlukanisa umntwana nosapho — akukho nelinye ithambo emzimbeni wam elifuna oko,” utshilo.

"Sizama ukunxibelelana ngokuqonda, ngolu nyango unethuba lokuphila, ithuba lokwenyani."
