"Landon suffered nerve damage in his legs, nausea that lead to vomiting dozens of times a day, intense pain and at one point went 25 days without eating following the treatment." "Around the clock, he was usually on liquid morphine, Ativan, Promethexane," Sierra told CNN back in July. And it just really didn't seem to be helping."
The mother likely saved her kids life by stopping the chemo therapy. Hard to imagine any adult that could live through such horrific side effects for long, much less a three year old child. Besides the chemo the kid was put on all sorts of chemical drugs to treat the side effects of the chemo but the drugs were clearly not effective at doing that.
Would you stand in a pool of nuclear waste or radiation to treat cancer? That's what chemotherapy is like. Sure it will kill the cancer cells but it will destroy all your good cells as well. It's quack medicine.
I guessed you missed the part where he was cured....or believe that it was the cannabis oil that cured him?
Tell you what, if you get cancer someday I hope you stick to your convictions and just smoke pot until you are cured and refuse any traditional treatments.
Maybe it does, maybe not. But let them try everything they can. Chemo may kill the cancer cells but it pretty much kills you as well. No one is the same after chemo. Cannabis doesn't do that to your body.
You really believe that cannabis oils cured the cancer? Really?
Firstly, most cannabis that one would get in a shop is organic, no pesticides and growers take great pride in providing a natural product.
You know this how, exactly?
Growing indoors, how is that even an issue?
Hybridized? Try selective breeding. Just like with most agricultural good, selective breeding is used to get desirable effects. How is that an issue?
As stated earlier, prohibition is what is contributing to the drug war in Mexico and many other places.
See post #24.
And anyone who is buying pot or any other drug from south of the border is contributing to the drug war, whether they want to acknowledge it or not. You can disagree with prohibition, fine, but if you're contributing to the problem you're still helping to fuel it.
Do I think cannabis oil is the end all be all for curing cancer? No. Do I believe that it does have qualities that slow the growth of tumors, as well as help those who have cancer and are battling the horrible side effects from the other drugs given to help fight the disease? Absolutely!
Are you saying that you actually tried marijuana first for your son's nausea and it didn't work and so you switched to Zofran?
We tried Marinol. Zofran became available after we did that. All the Marinol did was make him hallucinate. Zofran, started before the chemo, prevented the nausea.
Cannabis has been used for centuries for medicinal purposes before we banned it. And now pharmaceutical companies do everything they can to make sure its still banned. And you know why....because they won't be able to profit on it. They would much rather push their manufactured pills on us.
It`s not only the pharmaceutical companies opposing legal weed, the workplace drug testing companies aren`t too thrilled with the thought of not being able to make people`s lives miserable because they puff a little on the weekend.
