Angry Dad's Challenge

Man gets up to say that he took his 5-year-old son who was profoundly disabled to Dr. Rader (?) and has been helped in a miraculous way.

People take jabs at these doctors who do these treatments -- he saved my son. Very articulate, very angry parent, trembling in this long, passionate testimony. I'm Catholic . . .the cells that helped my son came from aborted fetuses.


Medra.com, offered in the Dominican Republic. I have the eegs, mris, you can clearly see the changes year from year. he was on a trach, and a feeding tube.

Later someone tells him that the problem is that the doctor does not want to establish protocols and make it possible for what he's doing to become established in terms of techniques and methods. Another man says that he knows they haven't standardized things . . . which is exactly the problem. He doesn't care. This doctor healed his child and he doesn't like to hear him denounced as a snake oil salesman.

Very high emotion here. People trembling and shouting and trying to make themselves understood.

After the meeting ends, the crowd around the scientists and the last speaker whose son was helped is thick it takes us 30 minutes to give it up and leave for lunch.
