Children using the CDB extract go from hundreds of grand mal seizures a week down to a few, if any.

Sad for the kid and parents, but if they were waiting on the government to come to their rescue, they took the wrong route.

I think it is a shame they are using this little girl’s memory as an advertisement for pot.

Cuomo sandbagged them with the 18-month delay stipulation when he signed the bill into law on July 1st. They thought it would be available by now.

a little girl whose story touched all of Western New York ... a special oil-based version of cannabis worked wonders for kids in other states
I live in Rochester and never heard of this - and - if the "cure" worked wonders, and was available in other states, I'd have taken my kid to the closest one a loooong time ago.
How long before the family sues NY state?

i don’t smoke week so: 1) is it impossible to find this oil in other substances?? 2) if it was that desperate a need and the situation could have averted death, why didn’t one of the parents find someone who smokes weed and buy some joints??

not being sarcastic- i don’t know the answers...

I was wondering the same thing. Over the last few years, my daughter has had various health issues, and we’ve gone pretty far afield trying to get answers. Most recently, we went to Cleveland, OH, where a Dr. Milstein restored her voice. She lost it 3 years ago, and went through therapy and extensive testing, only to be told it was “stress-induced” and sent to a psychologist. Psychologist said, no, not stress induced. Within ONE HOUR, Dr. Milstein had her singing and talking again.

how many vets have died because 0bama’s VA put them at he back of the list?

how many people died due to fast and furious?

how many died on the trek from central America?

how many died in Benghazi?

how many died due to liberal abortion policies?

how many have died due to drugs being freely available?

how many....

meanwhile...

does ANYONE think it’s difficult to find weed in this country, legal or not?

go into any junior high and you’ll be able to find it

they could have just moved to a different state where it already WAS legal?

Were it my kid, and were that treatment available elsewhere, and had it proven effective, I'd have found a way to get there.

Yes. A grow shop here in Denver developed a strain especially for this, and it works wonders. It has so little THC it won’t get a fly high but it does prevent the siezures.

How many families pack up and head to the Mayo Clinic or a St Jude's or Shriner's Children's hospital with their sick loved ones?

Our next door neighbor in Belize came all the way to the Cleveland Clinic for a heart valve replacement.

Travel for medical treatment and "medical tourism" have been common for some time now even when it must be subsidized by generous donors.

Conversing with a drug warrior is exactly like conversing with a gun banner. Both shed facts like a duck sheds water. That is what happens when blaming a chunk of metal or bag of plant matter instead of actions of people.

This is their Jihad, a Holy war against a herb.

actually, I’m pretty sure the ‘holy war’ isn’t against the weed... but against the use if the weed. this would be similar to being against shooting random people

and yes, anyone pro-pot is obviously a stoner

Then why didn’t these lazy SOBs go to Colorado where it is legal and get some instead of sitting on their butts and complaining while letting their daughter die???

(I don’t believe for a second that pot oil would have saved their daughter)
