Last year, Burzynski apologists frequently pointed to Amelia as a success story but, very sadly, her family saw her tumor begin to progress again in December, ultimately resulting in her death about a month and a half ago.

Basically, Johnson says, they were "picking and choosing which conventional cancer treatments they wanted to use." According to the researchers, previous studies estimate that between 48 and 88.

More likely, Hannah is a fortunate outlier, although its hard for me to say even that because, at only two years out from her initial diagnosis, shes only just reached the lower end of the range of reported median survival times for her disease. How else can I explain their rather evasive comments in their last two vlogs, coupled with their cryptic Facebook comment, a vlog that is apparently no longer on her website, and the fact that they have not shown any of Hannahs more recent scans, which is in marked contrast to what they did when her tumor was shrinking?
