"Medicinal Cannabis Has Changed My Daughter's Life"

The mother of "Paloma", a girl who began treatment with Dr. Carlos Laje, said it’s a month since its treatment and her improvement is remarkable. 

Paloma is a 10 year old girl who lives in the city of Deán Funes, who has down syndrome and has only one lung due to an operation that she underwent as a baby. In addition Paloma was diagnosed 3 years ago celiac disease and that was added respiratory disease of asthma. 

During the year 2016 she became ill three times of pneumonia, which his mother said "were very strong".

As a result of the asthma that was detected in the month of April last year, the girl was given three bronco dilators per day, which did not produce any improvement, but on the contrary, Paloma had episodes of vomiting, decay and loss of weight. 

Blue, Paloma's mom noted "since she was born, until a month ago, at least once a day she vomited what she ate, which after her hospitalizations in 2016 became acute and she vomited everything she ate. she did not assimilate food." 

Faced with the serious state of her daughter’s health she consulted with a friend, the one who already knew about the treatment of medical cannabis. After consultation she decided to see Dr. Carlos Slab; to get information and then approached the office for a treatment for her daughter. 

"I contacted Dr. Laje and he gave me information about the diseases that can be treated with cannabis oil, I told him what Paloma was suffering and he told me that the treatment could be done.

The mother said that now Paloma, no longer takes more medication, since little by little the bronco dilators were removed and now only ingest the drops prescribed by the doctor Laje. "Since December 5 that Paloma has started with this treatment, she did not have any more vomiting, she gained weight and her mood is different, she has more desire for everything." 

The treatment 10 years old girl received based on cannabis oil, which is extracted from flowers and is administered to patients as oral drops.
At present there are many controversies with treatment, social prejudices and a law that is not yet clear. On this, Paloma's mother said, "It's not that my daughter smokes marijuana, I already explained it ... they are drops of an oil, extracted from marijuana." 

"Cannabis medicicinal has changed my daughter's life remarkably, I think there is a lot of misinformation and that the prejudices that exist are due to ignorance." Blue concluded, who also said she was very grateful to Dr. Laje, whom she described as "a very human and open doctor".
