A Minnesota teen who fled the state to avoid chemotherapy has finished his cancer treatment.

Daniel Hauser of Sleepy Eye, Minn., underwent his final radiation session Friday, and his family says the 13-year-old is cancer-free.

Daniel gained national attention when he stopped treatment after one session in February and fled, citing his religious beliefs.

In May, a Brown County judge ordered that Daniel must have medical treatment, despite the religious and other objections of his family. The judge noted the opinions of five physicians, who said that Daniel had a 90 percent chance of surviving his Hodgkin's lymphoma if he underwent chemotherapy.

The teen soon underwent court-ordered chemo to treat Hodgkin's lymphoma, then started radiation therapy.

Family spokesman Dan Zwakman told a Minneapolis television station that everything is going as planned.Judge John Rodenberg has asked for reports from Brown County Family Services and Daniel's doctor. If everything looks good, the case will likely be closed.
