Laurence Fox. The twat.

Bob Marley didn't have lung cancer. He had skin cancer on his toe and refused an amputation quoting religious reasons letting it spread to other places.
I didn't know that but it was the spread of cancer to his lungs & brain that did for him. Not sure what stage the cancer was at when he was diagnosed & whether an amputation would have saved him.
If I was diagnosed with terminal cancer I would refuse treatment after watching my brother go through chemo & radiotherapy. Better to just go for pain relief & have your better days rather than go through extra shit just to give you a few more days.
A personal opinion & I totally respect anyone who opts to prolong their life.
Sorry if off topic.
 
Loads of people refuse cancer treatment. Not many recover from lung cancer & often the treatment can ruin the end of your life. Not really comparable with anti vaxers.

He died from skin cancer.

Initially it was only on one toe (under the nail).

Doctors recommended removal of the toe.

He refused because, he said, it went against his religion (Rastafarianism) to remove any part of the body. Iirc he hoped cannabis would fix it.

It spread throughout his body.

Less than 3 years later he died.

He did have surgery, but not the amputation recommended. A skin graft allowed for the removal of some of the affected area. Tho clearly not enough.
