Research and Testimonials of how Cannabis Oil can be used to help treat Dravet Syndrome
Charlotte Figi's Story
(Information from www.m.com Click here for full Article)
Charlotte was only 3 months old when she was diagnosed with Dravet Syndrome. At the age of two she started showing autism like behaviors and disconnecting cognitively. At 5 years old she was having 300 seizures a week. Her parents eventually got cannabis oil and the results were immediate. She went from 300 seizures a week to having only 1 in seven days.
When her supply ran out, they found the Stanley Brothers who made a special oil high in CBD and low in THC called Charlotte's Web. They named it after Charlotte.
Today, Charlotte is living the life of a normal child. She can feed herself and sleep right through the night. Even her autistic symptoms have disappeared.
