NEW: Emma Joyce died at 3 years old. The next year, her sister Ava Joan died.
Then their brother died from the same complication of untreated diabetes that killed Ava Joan.
Later, a fourth sibling died.
Their parents believed in prayer, not medicine.

@ProPublica These people are fucking ridiculous. For thousands of years, countless human beings would have given anything to have access (for them or loved ones) to the vaccines and treatments we’ve developed since the 19th century. And now, people are handed all of it on a silver platter—and still choose to refuse it. 🤮

I don’t care if they are prosecuted, I just want someone to look out first for the interests of the child: we are all caretakers of children’s rights until they are able to do so themselves, and the first of their rights - the one we must guard most zealously - is their right to life.
