Family Said NO To Radiation
In November of 2014, a team of researchers from St. George’s University of London, found that the two most common cannabinoids in marijuana, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD), weakened the ferocity of cancer cells and made them more susceptible to radiation treatment. The study, which was published last year in the medical journal Molecular Cancer Therapies, found that when those two cannabinoids were used together that cancer cells could be weakened and therefore be more susceptible to radiation treatment.
Sadly though, the federal government largely still acts as if marijuana has no place in healing the body. In any form.
But, not everyone needs the government to tell them it’s ok. Whether they are using it alone, or combining it with chemotherapy- many people have already taken the leap and found success treating cancer with cannabis. And, the truth is that there are decades of research to irrefutably show that THC and CBD completely destroy cancer cells; hundreds of studies have been published to the fact.
Can you imagine what would happen if a pharmaceutical drug showed even half the medicinal promise that cannabis does? Clinical trials would already be underway. But, plants can’t make Big Pharma as much money as drugs can.
Despite this fact, people are taking matters into their own hands. The survival rate of chemotherapy is very low, and I personally believe if studies were done to examine the success rates of people who use cannabis, or other forms of ‘alternative treatment,’ chemotherapy would seem like a far less logical option. Despite the mounting evidence of chemotherapy’s lack of effectiveness in prolonging survival, oncologists continue to present it as the only worthwhile approach to treating cancer.
The disconnect between treatment and advice is killing people: a paper titled “The contribution of cytotoxic chemotherapy to 5-year survival in adult malignancies,” explains that the contribution of chemotherapy to 5-year survival in adults is a mere 2.3 percent in Australia and 2.1 percent in the United States. That’s simply not good enough when we have this gift in cannabis oil.
But, here’s the story of a mother who knew exactly what to do when we sweet baby girl was diagnosed with leukemia. We are so thankful to this mother for giving her daughter’s body what it needed to fight this terrible disease.
The story of Mykayla Comstock, from the article at Collective Evolution:
“When you are an adult with cancer, you have the choice to use the two recommended options or refuse treatment and select alternative methods. When you are a child, on the other hand, neither you nor your parents have any choice. If your parents refuse the recommended treatment, they face severe legal repercussions, including custody loss.
Brave Mykayla had T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, which is a very rare and aggressive form of childhood leukaemia. It accounts for 15-18% of childhood leukaemia cases. Her DNA was altered in some way, and it caused her bone marrow to start producing leukaemia white blood cells. She fell ill in May of 2012, and in July that same year doctors discovered a basketball-sized mass of lymphoblasts in her chest. Her mass was so large that she was not able to be sedated for risk of death from the pressure on her esophagus and heart. Although she went through chemotherapy, it was unsuccessful, and her doctors then wanted to give her full body radiation and a bone marrow transplant. Her parents declined, choosing instead to try cannabis oil and a healthy diet. Almost immediately after doing so, her tumour began to shrink and she went into remission. Almost four years later, Mykayla is still cancer free.”
