The (Longview) Daily News reports a Winlock woman who uses medical marijuana for pain management claims her teenage daughter’s brain cancer has been cured with cannabis.
News reporter Lyxan Toledanes writes that 15-year-old Taylor Rehmeyer, diagnosed at age 6 with a rare brain tumor, over the years has been treated with something called proton radiation at a center in Philadelphia and been treated at Seattle Children’s Hospital, but sometime after last August, turned to marijuana oil, an alternative and controversial treatment illegal in most states and not regulated.
The news article doesn’t mention what doctor, if any, is treating the girl, but notes that her mother, Karen Owen, says she will need to take a small dose daily for the rest of her life.
