Also posted this on Peatarian, in case you guys didn't see it. Sad story and may have implications for alternative health movement...

Jess was an Australian blogger who was diagnosed with a rare cancer (epithelioid sarcoma) at age 22 and rejected conventional medicine (which would have had her amputate her entire arm - however I'm still unclear if this would have cured her).
Instead she did Gerson therapy, green juices, etc. (unfortunately nothing Ray Peatish).
Her mother got breast cancer a few years ago and also rejected mainstream treatments, and she died in 2013. That stress probably contributed to Jess's death last week age 30... but she lived for 7 years with the cancer.
This vile blogger has been on deathwatch for a while now - posting about it with glee:

The comments are also shocking to me - as if doctors know everything and this girl was "dangerous" for simply writing about what she was doing.
Seems to be a huge blow for alternative health world...??
