This is a tremendous victory for those who support the right to life issue, this young child has as much right to life as any of those who're
seeking to survive, or to improve their health by augmenting whatever conventional treatment or therapy which serves to sustain their existence.
I would wonder why the government and our legislators continue to suppress the rights of those who seek to medicate themselves in this manner,
circumventing the prohibiting costs of conventional medical treatment, often losing their savings, their homes and most assuredly, the God given
hope for a measure of quality, in life. The example shown in this young child, should serve as a powerful beacon, illuminating a new and a worthy
avenue of redemption for cannabis, it's curative powers, it's valid place in the practice of medicine as well as underscoring the drastic need for
changes in the legal system respective to marijuana. America needs to call our leaders to task and we must continue to focus upon maintaining
a fair balance, between the positive aspects of cannabis and those patently negative aspects, the great mythical propaganda campaign which
the government has placed in the forefront of the entire issue.

1. There is no such thing as medical marijuana. This is the problem when laymen attempt to discern the medical literature. There is no randomized, blinded prospective study showing the efficacy of "medical marijuana".
2. I do not care if people smoke pot. I certainly do not care if a cancer patient smokes pot. However, there are far better medical alternatives for pain, nausea, and appetite during chemo. I know this as a physician and as a cancer survivor who had these symptoms while undergoing chemo.
3. "Medical marijuana" did not cure this kid. Chemo did.

I'm curious which medications work as well with the same or less side effects? Not arguing, just curious.

I'm sure you also realize that there is variety in how patients react to treatments and what works for one person may not for another and vice versa. I wouldn't be surprised if there is a lot of validity to both approaches, especially since not every patient and not every condition is identical.
Are you people really this dense? He was cured because of the Chemotherapy, not because of the Marijuana. All the Marijuana did was enable him to tolerate the side effects of the Chemotherapy. It dident actually cure anything.
If he had just taken the Marijuana pills alone he would be dead right now.

Um, cancer can't be cured. It's a chronic condition.
