Morrow told Edgar’s parent that the insulin the doctor has prescribed was poison and to rub lavender oil on Edgar’s spine instead — claiming it would cure him,


Holy fricking shite... these all may be the dumbest people on earth involved in 1 story.

But were the Essential oils or non-essential oils? That could have been the problem.

:facepalm:

How stupid is everyone involved with this story?

Even a natural oils huckster should have known better than to prescribe oils instead of insulin for a type 1 diabetic.

How did he treat a broken leg? Opening the wound and pouring salt in it?

doesn't sound like a doctor, and why should he go to prison? He didn't block the kid from receiving insulin. 4 month sentence proves they don't really have a case against him. He's incredibly dumb but that's not a crime. Do they go after everyone who offers oils for people's bodies. NOPE. You can to dozens of stores where you live and get the same oil. It's a tragedy, but it's the parents fault not some old dufus's fault.

Doctors don't know shite. I get all my medical advice and supplies from mom's who have decided to work from home selling simply life changing products that are EVERYTHING

If the parents don't go to jail they should at least be forcibly castrated. And, just to show I'm not completely insensitive, they can have all the herbal oils they want before the procedure.

Used the wrong combo, should have had more peppermint and lavender, maybe even some lemon grass



If anyone wants to purchase the right oils for their kids to supplement vaccines I am having a oil party at my house next week. There will be deals....

When “doctors” start doing the Momo challenge, we’re all screwed.
