 Editor’s Note: Justin Kander is webmaster of the Phoenix Tears organization and author of the Comprehensive Report on the Cannabis Extract Movement, a 100-page report that examines and analyzes the mounting evidence in support of cannabis extracts as medicine.
Recent news surrounding the use of cannabis extracts for cancer and other diseases has largely been concentrated in the United States, where thousands of families are beginning to use high-cannabidiol oil for various forms of epilepsy.
However, use of marijuana as a medicine is not limited to America or epilepsy, and throughout the world, people are beginning to use cannabis-derived medicine for epileptic and other conditions.
International News Surrounding Cannabis Extract Medicine  In Australia, dozens of children are using THC-A tincture for various forms of epilepsy. THC-A is the non-decarboxylated, raw form of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and is non-psychoactive like cannabidiol (CBD). This tincture is proving to be as or more effective than CBD for epilepsy.
Tara O’Connell, the most well-known tincture patient in Australia and who suffers from Dravet syndrome, has gone from 60 seizures a week to seizure free with a year of THC-A use. Her brother Sean, who has a less severe form of epilepsy, has also improved dramatically.
An article published on the Herald Sun mentions other Australian parents who are seeing the same miraculous results with their children.
Cannabis Oil Helps People Fight Cancer On A Global Scale Most of the other international activity has been focused on cancer. A January 2014 story on a Croatian news station featured “Mark,” who didn’t want to use his real name for fear of criminal prosecution.
Mark had suffered from non-small cell lung cancer. He was given four to twelve months to live, and chemotherapy that was intended to prolong his life only made things worse.

After receiving news his cancer had doubled, Mark stopped treatment and began cannabis oil. He immediately began feeling better, and the cancer was no longer visible on X-rays after three months. |
