The cure for cancer.

[Wolftone]

Well of topic but this is something everyone need's to know. As we all know our government's lie to us constantly but at last there is a movement to dispel the rubbish & blatent propoganda that has been spouted on this subject. Here is just one beginning of the trail. It is a vid of a doctor who's son has been curing his tumor with THC. I will point out that although the doc dosen't agree, that the boy's last scan showed a decrease in the size of the inoperable & allegedly uncurable tumor.

hmmmmmm, touchy subject, but quite relevant to people i know and close friends at the moment, i'll look it up, cheers.

[FreakyDude]

important subject for my family as well.
I do not believe that cannabis or THC itself can help cure cancer. I do know what it can do though is give an ill person an appetite which in turn fuels the body to help in it's own defence. All too many succumb to illness because of a lack of nutrition.
I hope this gentleman wins his battle and in fact anybody fighting cancer has my deepest wishes for their speedy recovery. I don't care what drug or treatment it takes to do this either. Damn the Doctors/Politicians for not having the backbone to support alternative medicines.

First hand knowledge,my mother and her mother both died of the same cancer,and in my presence. Marijuana is used in the late stages for the patients with the colostomy bags,it allow their digestive system to slow down and process nutrients.It is grow here in Memphis for the UT Medical group at what was our Penal Farm prison.

In my mothers case it is provided in a fine powder,mixed in a brownie or cookie ready made package.baked and then eaten as a way to one not throw up,but two slow down the rate of digestion so her body could gain some nutrients.

It did help alot,and she would become very energetic using this process. But the truth is simple,their is no money in a cure,and the FDA does want to monitor behaviour. The only purpose of Government Health care is control period.

And the drug companies are in this business to make a profit period. Not to make a cure,the other issue in this country is the 100 billion dollar tobacco industry,they certainly pay their taxes as our tobacco is one of the highest consumer tax rates,we were told this was to discourage use and fund a cure.Yea right,No cure,5.00 a pack for smokes.

Legal pot means the tax rate fails,the Government cannot control legal pot farming,it's a weed,and grows easily in our climate. The Kentucky Governor tried to defy the Feds,he was on a path to make it purely legal.What stopped it? 80% of the people wanted it,most of the politicians wanted their federal money for their "programs" yea right.

So the law did not pass and the Army flies pot raiding parties over the Kentucky/Tennessee border A VAST water way called Land Between the lakes formed by the TVA damn system,another Government program of the 1930, we have a large pot crop in these two states,and it cannot be taxed,so it cannot be legal ever period,OH unless the Government for the people by the people thing happens.

Thank you for your well considered replies. I was a tad worried about posting this as it is a touchy subject & obviously well off topic. But i hope people would realise this is not about getting high but about spreading the discussion, dispelling many of the myth's & thereby hopefully pressuring all governments to allow more research. I have watched friend's & family die & have also now met two people personally who have made a full recovery thanks to the pure thc oil. Unfortunatly to do so they risked prosecution as here in the UK there is no medical thc available.
Thank you. Wolftone.

One other point that might be worth mentioning,the founders of Virginia from England found the Tobacco a cash crop,smoking this plant began for profit and has continued ever sense.

Our government collects billion from this industry ever year and has for centuries. The tobacco has been manipulated to be adictive and habit forming all under the approval until recently of the FDA.

The FDA is the same agency that forbids the use of THC laden plants like Marijuana. This is so very wrong I have no words to describe it.They sit back for centuries allowing us to purchase and die from a product and clearly prohibit the marketing of another product that has actual benefits?

Remember not so long ago we were told which tobacco was better for our health? And with FDA approval,then they started the scam of quitting smoking as being healthy,yet continue to TAX this plant and force us to support the industry while they still produce a product designed to kill us,just insane.

I do feel this is a bit out of place, but I'm not annoyed by it. My Aunt died from cancer about 3 weeks ago and my Dad told me on the 25th of this month that he has it. That was the day after my wedding (yes I've been married a week and a bit) Each to thier own I say and not all cancers are the same. My Wife's Father is a highly qualified Doctor and he tells no lies.

[Saxondog]

It's not been the Doctors in my experience but the Government and the FDA. Many doctors understand that any weapon to fight cancer should be allowed, but the Government has their view.

Look at House speaker Nacy Pelosi, California not only allow the growing and selling but is also immune from many other Federal Laws.

It is a Federal law that prevents the growing,and manufacturing first,then this law is supported by the States Laws.

But when a state breaks the Federal Law they are excused based on their political base,not the need or will of the people.

California also has drug free Zones on the beaches,and drug ok Zones,the If caught with under a certain amount you are written a citation,just like a Traffic ticket.

But I strayed,it's certainly not the Majority of Doctors,a pain Management Doctor would prescribe Marijuana if it was helpful for the patient if not for the Government.

Also modern science,check out MEDTRONICS DEVICE,this is a transdermal morphine machine installed inside the patient and regulates micro amounts of Morphine directly into the nerve root of each spinal vertebra. 1/100 the amount of Morphine to mask the pain. Much better for the patient,once a month the unit is refilled,and the patient has a small device,the size of a cell phone that is used to change the dosage or administer a quick dose for really bad occurrences.

The other device is a wire,implanted onto the spine,tapped into each nerve group it interrupts the electrical signal to the brain,and sends a signal that makes the brain register no pain,this has been s success for many,and is installed with a small monitor which allows the patient to change the settings for High pain events.

But even these devices have to fight Government Control and regulation that is the real problem with health care.

I'm not convinced. The drug companies use nature to provide them with all types of chemicals. Asprin for example!
There would be a Sh*t load of money to be made if they could isolate the important chemical. you don't need all the bells and whistle from Cannibis and all the cancer charities would be up in arms if there was a whiff of a conspiracy. I'm not going to write anymore on this topic, it will just wind me up. Sorry no offence.

[Saxondog]

No offence taken,this was an interesting subject that effects many people world wide. I don't think their is a conspiracy,just typical Government red tape,and their need to control behaviour.

Also understand the Growing of Tobacco is also regulated,as is distilling Alcohol.Another taxed vice. But to be clear I am not offended at all,your opinion has value,as should everyone's on this forum.

Thanks for sharing your view on this difficult subject Andy. Cheers Blake
