At the age of 10, Deryn Blackwell was diagnosed with leukaemia and two years later developed a rare form of cancer called Langerhans cell sarcoma. After four unsuccessful bone marrow transplants he was given just days to live, but somehow Deryn battled his way back from the brink and has since made a full recovery. Deryn’s mother Callie revealed that she had been giving him medicinal cannabis and credits it with saving Deryn's life.

Amazing story

[@mafear8128]

All is explained in the film- Run From The Cure.

[@STEN4201]

I’ve been prescribed medical cannabis since 2020 now for adhd and slight depression, changed my life so much, more productive, better thoughts, better energy towards more proactive activities. If it weren’t for this I would not be here.

[@CyberpunkV2077]

What a lovely little story. I myself have ADHD and Autism and I hit a low point last year and that’s when I decided to go onto medicinal cannabis and it’s life changing and it has really changed my life.

[@saucerocreamify]

Wow! What a life story. Thank you for sharing. Politics and medical science professionals need to learn to listen a bit more eh

[@MonochromaticBlues]

This kid looks happy

[@user.8102]

This was on russel Howards show and he was brilliant

[@nadjibe]

OK! So why is this not being used on people with same condition 🤔 and why is cannabis still illegal in uk?

[@billardbenjamin6164]

Its because the drug companies want to make money by pushing pharmaceuticals

[@RR-ci9pm]

💰

[@TomBradshaw-ot9zb]

it is legal for medicinal use in the uk, but only for some conditions. even then there's hoops to jump through, e.g. you have to have been prescribed two forms of treatment before trying medicinal marijuana

[@nadjibe]

Legal or not why is it not used to treat same cancer is the question

[@aniacamara]

Because people from the US will flood the UK to get treatment. Big pharma is a big business

[@avekemper4450]

Need an update

[@shelliharper3487]

He’s still very much alive and thriving 🙂 His mum Callie is an amazing advocater helping me with my own diagnosis. I’m so very grateful to her as are 1000’s of others across the world.

[@alanreader4815]

Thats the boy from Russell Howard.

[@CyberpunkV2077]

💚💚💚

[@richardfowler9901]

Lets hope pc police don't see this.

[@UnforSeen]

He was on CBD its legal from the 2018 farm bill in the us even just has to contain less than 0.3% THC.

[@msbluesman]

Cannabis is a nutraceutical and metabolic essential but you don’t know what that means

[@UnforSeen]

Well then whats it mean without googling it.

[@__--__--__--__--]

Not to take away any importance from cancer. But we need to figure out a solution for ALS.

[@kimolankanava]

jewish people dont want to tell us the cure.

[@nanasturtlejustme9758]

Absolutely! Truth is, it's a plant and that threatens Big Pharma.... shows how much power they have....Biggest drug dealers out there!

[@TheChefHub]

Both terrible diseases

[@johnjarvis2168]

Try cannabis oil yet? I have been treating cancer patients with cannabis oil for free for 10 years now. I have witnessed more miracles than the Pope himself. You won't be sorry

[@markus_ply]

Gegen NET und Bauchspeicheldrüsenkrebs gibt es auch keine Heilung, sondern man stirbt

[@richardfowler9901]

Little man syndrome only watching because I am interested
