RE: Surviving Brain Cancer in a Precarious World

in #life7 years ago

I believe in this a one hundred percent! A family member of mines was diagnosed with cancer about five years ago. This family started regular cancer with with four other people who had also been diagnosed with cancer. My family started smoking marijuana every day about a joint size about to help with the pain from cancer treatment. While my family member is still alive and the other four people that were receiving treat have passed away.

Glad to hear your family member is still here and beat the prognosis. It doesn't work for everyone though and that is another reason why governments need to stop putting cannabis in schedule 1 where it can't be studied in human trials. We need to bring cannabis into the lab and the clinic to find out what ratios of cannabinoids work best for individual cancer cases. Everyone will have a different therapeutic ratio and not all cannabis plants are made equal. We need human trials of cannabis against cancer, not just petri dish models like we have now.

Sorry to hear that.
It was excruciating for me to watch my Mom go thru cancer -- early on (in the 1st year), I would stay over at her place (I was an adult at this time) as it comforted her. And this ALSO comforted me, for it made me feel good to alleviate some of her anxiety.

♥ I Loved my mom so (sigh)...

She was my good friend, in addition to being my relation

Good luck to you
