Katie Wernecke’s parents decided to drop their objection to the treatment after the tests were disclosed during a juvenile court hearing Friday. Katie, who turned 13 on Saturday, will remain in state custody as her therapy gets under way.
yes thats right
some other tests and the Parents would have relented to the treatment
Last week, authorities issued an Amber Alert to gain temporary custody of Katie after receiving a tip about possible neglect. She was found with her mother at a family ranch, about 80 miles west of Corpus Christi near Freer, on Saturday.
Charges against Michele Wernecke, who was free on $50,000 bond, were dropped Friday. The family’s other children, three boys, were reunited with the parents Friday following a CPS inspection of the home.
Once your willing to do what the massa's in the state tell you to do they can give you back your kids
Now again while the parents have made the right medical descion they did so based off of... the facts
Rather, they believe doctors weren’t upfront about Katie’s care and did not answer all their questions about the side effects of the radiation, Horne said.
two children forced into foster care, parents charged with neglect, an amber alert, a trial process
when a simple lab would have made it all go away
some doctors who felt they were god are to blame
and some state nazi-crats who ignore poor children in crack houses but will abuse real people making honest medical choices are really to blame
shame on the state of texas
