If he doesn't cure you, you still have choice:
A. God has a plan...
B. You're not a good enough Christian.
C. Shit happens.

But everyone in that state had to pay for it by proxy, if I'm not mistaken. 18 millions in tax subsidies, or something like that? Could have paid a few hospital bills, but no, not as important as Noah Land.
Somehow I don't think he would see much cash, tax deduction when there is no revenue does not create cash. The idea of even creationist paying to see plastic animals in make believe boats bespeaks of ken ham's confusion in drawing an equivalence between mere stupidity and enthusiasm about stupidity.

It goes something like this:
1. "This person is sick"
2. "Let's pray for them"
3.
a) person recovers
"Yay, it's a miracle!"
b) person succumbs and dies
"He's in God's hands now. Yay, it's a miracle!"
4. "Cash only; no cheques."
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

I think Ham is one of the few that really does believe what he's selling, because when he talks about it, his tone is one of petulant presupposition, than carefully curated apologetics. Put simply, I think a salesman would put more thought into his pitch than Ham does, and since all Ham does is repeat the pitch, over and over, as though the pitch being the pitch should be sufficient for anybody, he probably just believes a dumb thing, instead of selling it to other dumb people.
