Welcome To The Intern Show!
Baylen, Cicero, and Leonardo are all out back in my shed. I lured them over with promises of PBR, then told them Michelle Malkin was naked in the lean-to. Hopefully that Masterlock will hold another week or two. Leonardo appears freakishly strong.
At any rate, a judge has decided he knows what's best for a sixteen year old in need of cancer treatment. Namely, that he should have chemo. (Baylen mentioned this last week.)
The kid has Hodgkin's disease, and fought it last year with a miserable round of chemo. When he was in need of treatment again this year, the kid wanted to try alternative medicine in lieu of chemo - hoping (a) it might be more effective, and (b) it might make the life he was trying to save a little more liveable. His parents thought that sounded swell, so they went about trying to find a reputable clinic; then a social worker got involved.
(Not relevant but interesting fact: the kid's given name? Starchild Abraham Cherrix.)
