According to the articles that I have read he has a very treatable form of cancer but he and the family are choosing not to go the chemo route because of religious beliefs..
If that is the case I feel sad for the kid and I would let the parents know that if they have talked the kid into not going for chemo because of their crazy religious beliefs and he dies they will charged with his death.
It is one thing if someone is dying and chemo will only give them a few more months to live so they and their parents decide not to do it. It is another thing all together when someone with whacked out religious beliefs thinks that something that can cure their kid will send him to hell and they have brainwashed him into believing the same thing. The kid is too young to make his own decisions. If the parents tell him he will go to hell for getting chemo he believes it.
There was a case not too long ago where a little girl died because her parents didn't give her medical treatment because it was against their religious beliefs. They prayed and said God would heal her if he wanted her to live. Well, of course she died. It turns out she had diabetes. With some simple medicine she could have lived a very long and healthy life. But they robbed her of that.
