If he waits until he gets to stage 4 to get serious about his treatment, it may be too late.
The treatments will be more intense with side effects as well?

It could also be some minor placebo effects.
He thinks worthless drugs are miracle drugs, so he feels a bit better on it.

Your brother is a fool for ignoring his sister who is an experienced oncology RN.

But the MAGAs are all geniuses and we are all stupid.
So let him eat worthless meds.
