I think most of us have heard the story of the 11 year old Wisconsin girl who died as a result of Type 1 Diabetes complications. Her parents declined doctor or hospital care, preferring to use their faith in the power of prayer and healing. The girl, Madeline Neumann had been sick, according to relatives for some time. She had been taken out of regular schools to be home schooled and had not seen a doctor since the age of 3.
