I think the 18 years is the age of the patient rather than the therapist. But as the latter says she's a second year student she may not be much older.
They do love the disappearing breast lump. Since they don't know if it is a cyst or an abscess or what, of course when it disappears they have cured cancer!
The longer case that Hans Weitbrecht quoted was ripped to shreds by BSM in an earlier thread in the same forum. The evasion that started when he tried to get clarification of what was meant by "Tissue-sample came back positive in meantime" was astonishing. It became clear that there had never been any positive confirmation of malignancy, and in fact the treatment with antibiotics suggested that the lump was probably an abscess. Which of course would tend to resolve in the end no matter what. (I think that thread was another of the many victims of Stalin's airbrush, unfortunately.)
I love the way they all witter on about these indeterminate "connections", and show bugger-all knowledge of physiology, but when the argument gets heated, suddenly Divina knows all about oxytocin! Hey, Divina, did you forget you're not supposed to enquire what goes on inside the body, or why any of the symptoms you observe are occurring?
Don, now you realise. Both BSM and I are simply outraged that people are preying on the vulnerable with this delusional nonsense. We're particularly incensed that this nonsense is tacitly accepted within our own profession, and fellow-professionals promote it to their clients as being a valid branch of medicine. In order to be ready to argue against this, we find it useful to debate the issues here, and to debate with them on their own territory (until we get banned).
