My father has been dealing with prostate cancer for a couple of years now and is about to begin treatment. Does anybody have any information or personal testimonials about how marijuana has helped you or your loved ones in their battle with cancer or other illnesses? Any information would be much appreciated. I came across to read this article kylekushman.com/swiss-perc-bong-by-nate-dizzle/ highly concentrated cannabis oil can be effective not only in the treatment of symptoms but also in the actual treatment of cancer itself. Does anybody know if there is any science behind this? I am very familiar with the high and physical effects of cannabis but
I can't find any solid conclusive evidence that speaks to its efficacy in eliminating the cancer cells themselves. Any help or personal testimonials is much appreciated. Thanks

Hi,

There's no science suggesting cannabis cures or prevents cancer or even ongoing studies on the topic. Cannabis studies being done in people with cancer are to learn more about cannabis' effects on pain and appetite.

I hope your dad does well.
All best,
Janine

I joined GRACE as a caregiver for my husband who had a Pancoast tumor, NSCLC stage III in 2009. He had curative chemo/rads then it was believed he had a recurrence in the spine/oligometastasis that was radiated. He's 10 years out from treatment.
