A member asked:
Can you explain if it's possible for cancer patients to recover without treatment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You mean cured?: I believe is theoretically possible (spontaneous remission vs. Supernatural healing, your pick) but regardless of philosophical or religious views, i would respectfully suggest to any and all cancer patients that they at least consult with a cancer specialist and allow that consultation to be part of their decision regarding therapy.
