Cancer returns after Montana medical marijuana dispensary closures cut off supply of the cannabis oil that kept Cash Hyde’s malignant tumor in remission.
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) July 28, 2012
The Cash Hyde Foundation is calling for donations of cannabis oil to help a 4-year-old child suffering from cancer in Montana.
While receiving medical cannabis treatments, Cash's brain tumor had gone into remission twice; but after a wave of federal raids shut down marijuana dispensaries in the state, his supply of therapeutic cannabis oil has been cut off, and his cancer has returned.
After traditional treatments and medications had all failed, the father of two-year-old Cash Hyde turned to high-CBD cannabis oil to treat his son’s malignant brain tumor. Shortly after, Cash’s health began to improve. He was comfortable, had started eating again, and had recovered his desire to play.
But then federal agents staged a series of raids on medical marijuana dispensaries throughout the state. Rather than face the risk of being stormed by armed agents and subjected to steep fines or jail time, many legally-compliant medical cannabis dispensaries in Montana closed down.
Now that cannabis oil is unavailable in Montana, Cash can no longer continue his 2,000 mg/day cannabis oil treatment. His doctors reported today that Cash’s cancerous tumor is no longer in remission.
...
Cash’s situation is the latest example of how federal actions shutting down medical marijuana dispensaries are endangering seriously ill patients of all ages.
“The federal government’s continued closures of legal state medical marijuana dispensaries will cause needless suffering and even death to patients like this little boy in Montana,” said Andrew DeAngelo of Harborside Health Center.
If the feds are successful in closing Harborside Health Center in Oakland, the father of a five-year-old diagnosed with Dravet Syndrome, a rare and debilitating form of epilepsy that begins in infancy, may soon lose access to the cannabis tincture that is controlling his son’s seizures.
