    Joey, a 9 yr. old autistic boy was dying because he couldn't/wouldn't eat. He couldn't talk, couldn't relate to people, had violent episodes and was severely underweight. He was dying and all the medicines prescribed for him only made him worse.

    Then one day his mom made him a marijuana brownie. Within an hour of eating it, his behavior changed. He wanted to eat, and started eating things he'd never had before. Over a period of days his health started to improve, he began talking and acting like a normal child. His mother continued to give him small amounts of cannabis brownies and he gained weight and now is expected to recover.

    Unless I am totally misreading and wrong, she is not legally able to give this to this child.

    What rubbish.

    I am thankful that it is working and that this child has a life now that he did not have before.

    That she and others can not treat with this is a crime.

    Yes, she had to fight legal battles in order to use cannabis as medicine for her child. The case against her was thrown out since there was overwhelming evidence that it was working as medicine and helping to save the child's life.

    The continuing hypocrisy of the Federal gov't to have patented cannabinoids, to have allowed gov't grown cannabis for just a few medical patients, meanwhile denying all along that it has ANY medical value at all, and prohibiting anyone else from growing or using it is the REAL CRIME against humanity.

    Truly a wonder drug, in every since of the word.

    That is good news. This will surely change the bad reputation of marijuana on people. Although this may raise conflict because a child is taking marijuana, this is still good stuff!
