I read that when he was diagnosed, the cancer was already metastasized and into his bones. It said he did use the SOC treatments that were more of a palliative nature but also tried ivermectin and fenbendazole. If this is true, I see no reason to bash him for trying some alternative treatment at the end. I think it is okay to try to stop cancer by any means.

@bobgolf Yes, I agree -- nobody deserves to be bashed.

Any information I'm sharing (and I hope this applies to everyone) is for the sake of others reading this discussion, not to bash Mr Adams.

My cancer was also metastasised and into my bones when I was first diagnosed in 2021. Yes, the old standard of care was purely palliative, but that has changed in recent years, at least at the best centres. They're hesitant to use the "cure" word, but many types of metastatic prostate cancer — especially if it's still oligometastatic and castrate-sensitive at time of diagnosis — can be managed, perhaps indefinitely in some cases.
