Can measurements of atomic structure made frequently enough eternally prevent decay of a radioactive atom?

I recently read that if we set up an experiment when a single atom of a radioactive isotope is measured for decay often enough, it will never decay, no matter what its half life. Now quantum mechanics boggles my mind every time I delve into it. The very notion of observation collapsing a wave function is mind boggling. But if this everlasting isotope experiment is true, it REALLY boggles my mind. Does anyone know if this author is right?
