So if it was your child, and the drug was his ONLY chance to live, and it has successfully treated those in his exact situation, you'd let him die just because it hasn't *yet* been approved by the FDA?

Yeah, I would, I'd rather let him die peacefully than in pain. And as for the successful, it's most likely that adults took the drug than kids. Plus, he's a cancer survivor, so the cancer could come back after giving the boy this drug and it would of been pointless. Also, people can react differently to the drug than others.
