I've met vegetarians with cancer. I'm pretty certain it's not that simple.

I can't speak to the parents 'cure for cancer' claim, but it's worth noting that 'vegetarian' really only means a diet without meat.

It's quite possible to be a vegetarian without consuming any more fresh fruits and vegetables than that found in a conventional diet.
