  1. I used to take care of a kiddo with LGS. Parents tried everything—VNS, benzos, nothing. Adding cannabinoids was the game changer. This was California, back in 2014. Sad how something so therapeutic is criminalized

  2. I can feel your pain, i have epilepsy, i still can't control my seizures, but marijuana lowers the frequency so they won't hit me hard. I know that someday i will have a seizure, and this time i won't wake up. I came to turns and accepted my faith. So for now i will prays JESUS CHRIST and try to live my life for him. I cause my uncontrolled seizures for fighting mma, but that kid was so innocent, didn't cause her seizures, she was born like that, but she's in heaven now. PRAYS JESUS!!!!!!

  3. Cannabis helps me with my seizures so that I can live my life. I feel really sad that it was so hard for her to get this natural medicine and she died from a seizure. It feels so wrong.

  4. Thank u for fighting the good fight for those of us who need this. I'm so sorry for what you've went thru. I pray you are reunited with your beautiful baby girl again one day God bless you

  5. Need medical pass to have the thc liquid an if you don't you get locked up for drug possession that would separate the 2 Medicai card to show why you need it an don't have the card then it's drugs

  6. That’s the medical department’s fault. They should have been on their professional job working making sure their clients are secure!🤦‍♂️😭I’m sorry you should contact a lawyer🙏

  7. So saddening! You guys striving for access to medical cannabis so others in similar circumstance won't go through what you wen through shows how strong you guys are.

  8. I really wish we could get substantial research about cannabis oil so if it works we can use it for medical purposes. But as of right now we know almost nothing about what it can do.

  9. A truly heart breaking story. This young child could have been saved, to be a parent and look your child's lifeless body, I can't imagine it. This mother is a strong individual to talk about it with us. I don't know if I could. This right here is a prime example of why things must change.

  10. Don't mike pence and cretins like him in government , care about baby till its in mother's womb. Once they pop, they say "you are own your own"

  11. So sorry for your loss. Full Legalization of cannabis is life or death. We can no longer accept "no", "maybe", "we will look at it" from your politicians. Vote anyone out who is not 100% on board with immediate legalization.

  12. Get out of the country! This is a Oligarchy, for the richest. You want better healthcare and easy access to college and cheat the law with little consequences justice is for sale….get rich and bribe the sistem, and if you claim this is a citizen right thing they blame and scare you calling you a communist or socialist along with all the poor shepples chanting Venezuela!!😲

  13. This is a misleading video. They don't really know that she died because she didn't get cannabis oil. It could just as easily be the case that she would have died anyway.

  14. Many prayers and love to this family! They're doing a great thing and helping many children in their state so that their daughter's death isn't in vain! I admire them greatly for what they are doing and for them sharing their daughter's story!! All the love in the world to them!

  15. My neighbor down stairs son suffers from dreve syndrome a severe form of epilepsy. He use to have over 300 seizures a day after going on the medical canabis he’s down to 4 or 5 a month…. It has been proven it works!! Legalize marijuana please!!

  16. i bet the oil is good..but once she stoped taking it..it gave her a monster seizure…u cant run from anything..medacine is only a bandaid…once you stop taking the meds…the come back in big waves…and the government..likes it when ill people..die…theirs to much people in this world

  17. I'm an adult, in the UK, with over two decades of limited mobility and chronic pain, from nerve damage and muscular dystrophy, behind me. My heart truly goes out to this family and everyone in this despicable position. I am on two kinds of opioid, Amitriptyline and daily sub-cutaneous injections of Ketamine on prescription but heaven forfend that I get a naturally occurring plant that makes a tremendous difference to my pain and ability to relax, function & move by any other means than illegally…it's sickening and disheartening and has to change. RIP Charly. Bravo to your brave, gutsy parents
