Top man "Twichaldinho"! 8) :lol: :lol: a great story to cheer me up on a black day from "Norway" :( :(
Like all i'm sure on the forum and millions around the world, i would say the real 'crime' with cannabis is in not exploring what it has to offer, as i'm sure is the case with many other plants.
The cynical bastard in me is coming out when i think how the money driven drugs companies around the world would react to such a simple, very,very inexpensive way of treating people, that beats the shit out of the 'wears' they are selling us all with very little 'right of reply'.
Glad the little guy pulled through ..... and if he grows up and never takes another 'toke' in his life, it will help rebut some of the crazy notions about the drug that exists amongst too many in places of power. ..... Wake up and smell the weed....

The chemo saved his life, the cannabis oil helped him through the chemo, not really the same thing.

I dont think it matters what did what, the initial operation saved his life, then the chemo did and finally the cannabis oil, thank fuck for the dad doing what he thought was best for his child.

It is important what did what because if people are misinformed, they might think that cannabis oil is some miracle cure for cancer and deny their child life saving chemo in favour of something that won't do anything to stop the cancer spreading.

How do "Mr_Gav"! Yes you are correct, it is important to say what did what when it comes to such important matters.
However it may look pretty straight forward that the chemo saved his life and indeed as "Boner" pointed out, it did..... along with the original operation, the cannabis oil, the doctors and nurses and probably many other things you could factor in.
I was pleased as i'm sure we all were that the little guy pulled through no matter what.
What i was thinking about was the immediate improvement in the boy's health as he was able to eat without vomiting it back up, a common side effect of chemo, if patients can face food at all. Same in people with HIV.
His dad also said it perked his son up very quickly and being bright, alert and happier than before, would have major benefits to anyone fighting for their lives.
I have no idea what drugs would be prescribed to a child of that age, or anyone of any age, that would give the same level of beneficial results and as quickly as that. What i would say is that ALL the drugs companies of the world would kill you, me and everyone on this forum to be able to say, we've developed a drug that did give you all this and would sell it to us, at a huge profit, like there was no alternative!! Fucking drug dealers!!
Possible side effect of the oil? There may be bad ones, they've been telling us that for years....He may get a 'munchie' attack and want more food.... win,win!
Possible side effects of drugs that they hope will have the same beneficial effect. There may also be bad ones.
You learn as much as you can, from anywhere you can and make the judgement call, although i'm sure it's a position we all hope we're never in. I know what i'd like to see tried out first on any sick kid of mine if i had any, before going down the alternative route from drugs companies in a case like this.
Remember the oil was treating symptoms of the chemo and in this stoner's opinion was also helping out with his fight against the cancer by beneficially giving the child an appetite, giving him the energy he needs to fight the good fight and dare i say it possibly (?) giving him the positive energy you get when you are feeling better. Even the look on the faces of his parents, nursing staff and others at his improvement could have had a beneficial effect on the wee guy.
But as you said "Mr_Gav", some people will just cherry pick the information at hand and make very bad decisions.
As i said, the very bad decision is in not fully exploring the many uses that any plant may give and 'reaping' many benefits. It's that greedy monkey again.....

I can confirm it helps. Miracle drug for nausea. I just smoked mine out in the smoking area of the hospital and that was 19 years ago.

I smoked all through my chemo, didn't have to use the anti-nausea drugs I was prescribed and was able to force food down most days. I was on a two week rolling programme getting my chemo one day every fortnight - which isn't so bad/brutal - still feels like shit though. Smoking kept me sane if nothing else - I used to blaze a big one down before my 8 hour stint on the drips. It helped me sleep, and make all the shite I ended up watching on tv more bearable.
And yeah, pretty sure the 'go anywhere, kill everything' chemo saved my life. nasty horrible drug that it is :wink:
