Can someone better explain the position of the medical ethicists? In a world where nobody would take them seriously, I can see how information like that could be confusing and difficult to deal with.... But hasn't this woman demonstrated enough accuracy that some doctor(s) would believe her and be able to counsel these potential patients by her referral? Especially since (if I'm reading the article correctly) early-stage treatment are mild lifestyle modifications and not invasive procedures?
