David Hibbitt, 33, was diagnosed with the disease in July 2012, undergoing chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgery to remove the large intestine.
The doctor told him that the disease was in its final stages and that he did not have much to live for, so David decided to try cannabis oil as a last desperate gesture to live and bought it from a local dealer for £ 50 per gram.
He is now a father and according to the latest assessment, since January, he is completely healed and blames this miracle on the group B drug.
He is now looking to the future after he married his 26-year-old partner, Heather Martin, after six years of relationship.
“My friends told me about cannabis oil and I ignored them at first. I never took drugs. But in February last year, I was told that I still had to live between 18 months and 5 years and I felt I had to try everything to heal. I felt like chemotherapy was killing me and I had nothing to lose. I couldn’t accept that I was going to die. ”
After searching the internet for options, he discovered a lot of information about cannabis oil and decided to try it.
“I paid around £ 50 a gram from a guy who did that, he told me it was enough for a month. It takes you to heaven and then knocks you to the ground, but by no means is it as bad as chemotherapy. The pain seemed to go away, and he also seemed to be doing his job. I just want to let people know that there are other options. ”
He chose to continue with cannabis oil rather than do any more treatment, he decided to be against a chemotherapy session.
After investigating in January, he was told that everything was fine – causing him to start arranging his wedding.
Mr. Hibbitt, the father of a 5-year-old boy named Ashton, says:
“I never thought that would happen, it’s wonderful. With a little luck, I’ll get old. I feel great and I hope my story inspires others. ”
His fiancée, Heather, a nurse, mentions:
“At first I did not agree to take cannabis oil because it is illegal, but I saw what changes were happening and I got used to it. He is a very determined person, he did a lot of research and he wanted to live. We are all amazed at how well he did. I can’t imagine my life without him. We went through a lot together. ”
The representative of the UK Research Center says he has heard of patients using cannabis extract for treatment but there is no “clear evidence” to prove it is safe and effective.
Philanthropic institutions support the cause of the use of drugs and synthetic cannabinoids in order to treat diseases. Dr. Kat Arney, from the UK Cancer Research Center. mentioned:
“We know that the active chemical found in cannabis – cannabinoids – can have many effects on laboratory-grown cancer cells or animal tumors. But for now, there is no clear evidence that it can treat patients diagnosed with cancer. Despite these issues, some patients choose to be treated with cannabis extracts. Researchers are gathering patients’ opinions to build an answer to the question: does this treatment help or not? Although this means little compared to laboratory research. Researchers at the UK Research Center support clinical programs to treat cannabinoid cancer to gather enough data to benefit patients diagnosed with cancer.
