Story
My Dad Trevor (that's him in the pic!) is 68 years old and in February this year he was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma (Cancer of the Bone Marrow).
This came as a massive blow to him and all of his family as you can imagine. He had a CT scan in March that showed it was getting worse and he is due to start Chemotherapy in September.
We started searching for natural remedies or anything that may help him and came across CBD. We read lots of different articles about how CBD had helped people with Cancer, and shrunk tumours and even killed cancerous cells, after quite a bit of research he, after some persuading decided to start using it. He's now been taking CBD (alongside Turmeric supplements) everyday for the past 2 and a half months and says he feels a lot better than he did before.
The problem we have is that we want to know if the CBD has had an effect, so hopefully he doesn't have to start Chemotherapy at all. He has already had a CT scan previous to taking the CBD so he won't be given another basically due to the cost.
We can pay to have it done but what with the cost of the CBD itself every month and the fact that he may need all the funds he can get in the future for treatments etc.. if the worst does happen, we really need the funding for this scan. If there is any chance at all that the CBD is working and it would put off or even just delay his need for Chemotherapy, for him it would, as you can imagine be just amazing.
He's a fantastic Dad to myself and my Brother Will, and a brilliant Grandad to Daisy & Milly our daughters. He has worked hard his whole life to provide for his family. I just want to be able to give him the help he needs.
Any help would be more than massively appreciated even if you can just share our page, as we don't want to see our Dad and Grandad go downhill and get even more ill or even lose him for good.
Thank You for taking the time to read this.
Jay.
