Cancer drug reaction led to death
What's your point?
Are you just trying to draw attention to this particular story for some
reason?
Scare people away from having treatment?
Cautionary tale about the dangers of treatment?
(vs the dangers of letting it go, perhaps?)
Encourage (more) informed consent?
I'm sure we can find such stories about practically any medical procedure or
treatment -- many of which are "toxic" in some way, otherwise they wouldn't
kill off the bad stuff.

bj,
There's been no objection on the other cancer newsgroup where it was posted.
I can't post about a death by a quack and ignore this one. That's dishonest.
I find good news items, I find bad news items. Sorry you don't like the latter.
it was posted for discussion. not to scare people..
"He had an abnormal reaction to a normal dose."
I expect it's rare, especially in someone so young and at the outset of
treatment.
Maybe the doctors here have an idea whet might have precipitated this <
information lacking>.
And I object to them calling it "death by natural causes" (barring further
information).
My thought is maybe he had another health condition that he and/or the family
were unaware of or do not want revealed.
