[medmanmike]

This a couple of weeks old - my apologies if someone else already posted this. Anyway, it's worth a reread.

"...the US government has, at last, admitted that marijuana has medical benefit. Yes, you heard right — the US government recently updated content pages on the National Cancer Institute’s (an official division of the US Department of Health) website to include information about, cannabis and cannabinoids.

 

Attempting to not draw too much attention to the update, the US National Cancer Institute quietly updated their website in January, admitting that cannabis and cannabinoids kill cancer without damaging the body’s normal cells. Considering that cannabis is a Schedule 1 drug, which according to the Controlled Substances Act of 1970, means that it holds NO MEDICINAL VALUE, how could such a unbelievable admission go unnoticed by mainstream media? After all this is the plant that has been demonized as the “gateway drug”, for the past 80 years — this is BREAKING NEWS!!..."

(WHO IS)"Attempting to not draw too much attention to the update," (why, its ) the US National Cancer Institute of course.
They know that only pink ribbons and cash can cure cancer They wouldn't want anyone to muddle up the cancer waters and begin healing now would they?

I think pink ribbons and cash cause cancer.  Poison it, radiate it, and cut it out....samo samo for a century. Way to go National Cancer Insitute!

Didn't notice it mentioned here, but 

 

Cancer patient illegally healed with medical marijuana identifies himself

 

 

A Camp Hill man says he had a choice: die or break the law. He decided to risk arrest by illegally using medical marijuana. He shared his story with ABC27 three months ago. It went viral and was shared over 10,000 times on Facebook.

 

ABC27 hid his identity to protect him and his family. Now, they are coming out of the shadows with an update on his health and a message for lawmakers.

 

Randal Ray Robertson, 56, was diagnosed with a rare bile duct cancer last year. After having a Whipple procedure, the cancer spread to his lungs and liver. He was given 9-11 months to live. For the past five months, he has been using a combination of chemotherapy and medical marijuana. He invited ABC27 to his most recent CAT scan.

 

“Our last scan about two months ago was fantastic,” Robertson said. “All the tumors in my lungs were gone and all the tumors in my liver had shrunk or resolved, which is unheard of almost, I guess, in this particular disease.”

 

What would the new scan show? Did the cancer return?

 

A few days later, the results were in. Robertson’s doctor allowed the family to record the results. In the video, the doctor tells the family: “the CAT scan looks great. There are no nodules in the lungs. Now, there are just a couple subcentimeter lesions on the liver. The rest of the liver looks great.”

 

His lungs were still clear and the small tumors that had remained in his liver had resolved even more.

 

“There was no denying at that point that this was not normal and this was not just the chemotherapy,” Robertson said.

 

“We could have gone to jail when we were actually using it. I mean, we were in jeopardy, but we had such amazing results that we had to step out,” his wife Molly Robertson said.

 

Randal used a medical marijuana oil that was made in his kitchen. He would also vaporize the medicine to get it into his lungs.

 

“I am convinced I wouldn’t be here without it,” Robertson said. “The chemotherapy was extremely difficult to get through and the cannabis really made that a lot more tolerable for me.”

 

“If you can’t eat, you can’t heal. If you can’t sleep, you can’t heal. If you can’t digest your food properly, you can’t heal. Pharmaceutical medications are designed to shut your system down, that’s what they do, marijuana does not do that,” Molly Robertson said.

 

The National Cancer Institute is a federal government agency. On its website it lists cannabis, or marijuana, as a Schedule I drug with no “currently accepted medical use.” The website cites animal studies where cannabis has been shown to slow or stop tumor growth, make chemotherapy more effective, and increase cancer cell death without harming normal cells.

 

“I cannot figure out why on one hand our government would say look at all the uses cannabis has and on another hand say it is a Schedule I drug with no medical value,” Molly Robertson said. “That is wrong. It needs to be changed.”

 

Which is why this family is sharing their story. Robertson’s daughters posted a video on Facebook asking Vice President Joe Biden for help removing marijuana from its Schedule I status.

 

“I don’t want someone to lose their dad, or their child, or a family member, or loved because almost having that happen to me is a pain that I would never wish on somebody else,” Becca Robertson, Randal’s daughter, said.

 

They are sharing their story at the Capitol, as well. Robertson has spoken at several rallies and he and his family are urging lawmakers to vote on Senate Bill 3 which would legalize medical marijuana in Pennsylvania.

 

“I am not asking them to all vote yes, I am asking them to vote. We can live with the outcome,” Molly Robertson said.

 

Pennsylvania physicians still appear to be torn on the issue. While many support compassionate use of medical cannabis, many believe there needs to be more research.
