7. KO reported a similar situation at the last
health fair in New Orleans. A woman showed up and was found to have stage 4 breast cancer; she, too, hadn't seen a doctor in many years. The woman ended up declining treatment -- the doctors reluctantly agreed. The impression I got was that the cancer was to the point where treatment would just prolong her suffering with little realistic hope of remission.
