Oregon mother jailed for treating daughter’s cancer with homeopathic remedies




In a highly controversial case, an Oregon mother was sentenced to 90 days of jail and 3 years of probation for essentially making health decisions for her now 17-year-old daughter that the state didn’t like. The details are found in an Oregon Live article by Noelle Crombie on Feb. 27.

The article explains that the mother, Christina Gale Dixon, 39, decided to treat her daughter with CBD and other homeopathic remedies instead of chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery (conventional treatments for cancer). This wasn’t always the case, as her daughter, Kylee Dixon, was first diagnosed with liver cancer in 2018 and underwent three rounds of chemotherapy.

The article explains that the Oregon Department of Human Services got involved in late 2018 when the mother wasn’t allowing her daughter to be treated according to the allelopathic physicians. The state then took custody of her daughter, yet allowed her to live with her mother until Christina fled with her daughter to Las Vegas to avoid a scheduled surgery in June 2019.

The law found the daughter in Las Vegas, then took the daughter away from the mother and put her in foster care back in Oregon. Christina remained on the run until she turned herself into the authorities in August 2019.

The article explains that Deputy District Attorney Brain Powell urged the judge to sentence Christina to 19 months in prison.

The daughter did undergo successful surgery in 2020 according to the prosecutors. The article explains that Klyee wasn’t at the courtroom, yet supported her mother on her Facebook page. The father, Jim Dixon, was in the courtroom and after the hearing said he supported the prison sentence for his ex-wife.

This is an interesting story in Oregon that has far-reaching implications for parents who want to choose alternative paths of cancer treatment over conventional methods. What we learn from this case is freedom of choice with cancer treatments is no longer available in Oregon for parents.

The Final Deception is Conservative and Religious

Politics are going according to the NWO's deceptive plan. Politics, History, and the NWO I’ve been taking a break from talking about politics lately, yet that doesn’t mean I feel any different about it. Being someone who doesn’t support Trump or the Dems makes it hard to get any traction with an audience. The truth is more nuanced than most people can handle. It is easier to simply pick a side and believe it without much critical thinking. Trump is speaking the common sense views of the majority of Americans who still have half a brain left after the many decades of brainwashing we’ve been subjected to. The big data algorithms have been gathering the views of every American, compiling them into meticulously organized data reports, so they know exactly what most people want to hear. The left are those who have accepted the brainwashed agenda without any critical thinking. They are the useful idiots the NWO has used brilliantly to create  most  of the problems that t...

4 Toto Songs That Sound Like the Beatles

                                    One of their biggest influences. Toto came out with their first self-titled album in 1978. Their first 4 albums were with singer Bobby Kimball and bassist David Hungate. After the fourth album,  Toto IV , these two original bandmates left Toto. During these early years (1978–1984), Toto sounded more like the Beatles in some of their songs. They had a British feel to their music, especially, with their first two albums,  Toto  and  Hydra . Here are the four songs I think sound the most like the Beatles from these first 4 albums: “Rockmaker” ( Toto ) singer/songwriter David Paich 2. “Manuela Run” ( Toto ) singer/songwriter David Paich 3. “Lorraine” ( Hydra ) singer/songwriter David Paich 4. “St. George and the Dragon” ( Hydra ), singer Bobby Kimball, songwriter David Paich Summary These are also four of my favorite Toto songs.

Same Articles Published on NewsBreak vs. Medium 2024

These sites are very different, yet how do they compare stat-wise with the same articles? I discovered how to publish my non-news articles on NewsBreak; I just put   Opinion   in front of the title. Now I can put the same articles I write on Medium on NB and see how they compare. NB pays an estimated $4.50 per thousand views on average. I’ve published 15 articles on both sites since this change. NewsBreak articles have been published in the last 36 days.

Writing is Hard For Two Reasons

Investing in the writing piece and the unknown results. Unknown Results of Writing Piece If, for instance, I knew every article would reach 10k views and 7k reads, my approach would probably be different — I can hear some say, just visualize and believe, act as though it already happened, yet it hasn’t and that ends up being a powerful truth even with an optimistic attitude. Having confidence in the performance of an article is different than having confidence in the content within the writing piece. The writer could very well feel the piece was worthy and done well, even if it doesn’t do well according to their set performance standards when published. Let’s say this, writers on all levels are generally dealing with the unknown when publishing a writing piece. For those who are not assured a decent result because of status, position, and level in the industry (those who haven’t “paid their dues” maybe), the unknown can become a detriment to writing for any monetary gain or accolades. ...
