48. You know, I've thought about this, and decided I need to apologize.

Nov 2012

I am sorry for suggesting that you would recommend this treatment for heart disease.

I am relieved to learn that you and I are in complete agreement that anyone in that condition should consult with their doctor, who holds a degree from an accredited medical institution.

And I'm especially glad to know that you and I totally support the course of action said doctor would recommend to their patient, whatever combination of diet, exercise, surgery, and proven pharmaceutical drugs that might be.

On top of that, it's a great pleasure to realize that you absolutely share my position that chelation treatment for heart disaese is risky, unproven, and not to be recommended to ANYONE.

Thank you for convincing me I was wrong about your position!
