Girl dies when parents trade medical intervention for prayer

MT is putting this under child abuse since this family chose to allow their daughter to suffer rather than get her help for a very curable disease…

WESTON, Wis. (AP) - The mother of an 11-year-old rural Weston girl who died of untreated diabetes says she didn’t know her daughter was terminally ill as she prayed for her to get better instead of taking her to the doctor.

Madeline Neumann died Sunday from an undiagnosed and treatable form of diabetes.

Her mother, Leilani Neumann, tells The Associated Press her daughter’s condition worsened suddenly, and the parents stayed in prayer, believing she would recover.

    TAKE YOUR KIDS TO THE LOW-COST CLINIC MORONS! I don’t care what “science” or “religion” you are… if the prayer don’t work in a few days… get to the doc’s office. unbelievable day after day this happens. their “g-d” shoudl push them off the nearest cliff.
