Like the couple in the states who decided to pray for their childs healing rather then take their kid to the doctor. The kid ended up dying and it turns out he had diabetes and could have lived a long normal life with treatment.
Sometimes stupid peoples decisions need to be overruled by peope more informed and dare i say not as stupid as them.
It's not like this is some radical treatment with a small chance of success. The doctors put the odds at 50/50 for full remission.

This is going to sound harsh, and I'm sure I'll get slammed for it, but the best way to fight stupidity is to let natural selection do its thing. Intervening to protect stupidity fosters more stupidity. There's enough mouths to feed in this world already.
