That quack with the oxygen tanks. The man with the home-radiation-detectors. Fucking hell.

I've read a fair bit in the local press, because the mother is from Brighton (who'd have thunk it, naming the child "Neon"?!?!).

It's really worrying how some people believe they know better than people who have spent years studying practices backed up by scientific evidence.

Mother seemed self-obsessed arrogant lady who eats lentil ice cubes as a treat.

Is the little boy ok now? What happened in the end?

I make no judgement of this mother, and nor should any other casual observer. She should have met my wife and quoted her when one useless paediatric consultant wouldn't investigate a gut problem with our new born son. We wanted a barium meal x-ray done and he was fobbing us off, so she got the necessary form and had it filled out, took it to him with a pen and said "sign here, I can read the books and become a Doctor, but you can never be a Mother"

She was clapped all the way to the radiography department and cheered when she entered.

I mean she clearly should know better but I also think the occasional case like this is inevitable when newspapers run constant health scares about conventional medicine and money-grabbing con artists sell quack cures to the sick and desperate to make a quick buck.
