In 2012, Landon Riddle, a young boy from Utah, was diagnosed with a vicious disease – Leukemia. Doctors found out that Landon’s chest is packed with tumors and there were some significant swellings on the groin and armpits. He was in such a bad shape that doctors predicted that he won’t live for more than 48 hours. Sierra, the boy’s mother, couldn’t settle with this prognosis.
Mrs. Riddle says that this was the most horrifying moment in her life. ALL or Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia is cancer that attacks the bone marrow and blood. Doctors started with chemotherapy right away.
Mrs. Riddle was forced to watch Landon vomiting up to 50 times a day. Landon completely lost his appetite. When the situation was most critical, Landon refused to eat for more than 25 days. Doctors believed that this was the end.
However, after few months, things started changing, Mrs. Riddle says that she was constantly discussing the options her son has with the medical team, but the results were far from promising. This was the time when her mother suggested the use of cannabis oil (the recipe).
Sierra claims that her mother was strictly against the use of drugs, but all the studies found online have convinced her that medical marijuana is very helpful. At that time, the use of cannabis oil in Utah was completely illegal although one year later; cannabis oil was legalized only in cases of children suffering from epilepsy. The Riddles had to travel to Colorado in order to use the help of marijuana.
Once Landon started using cannabis oil he was able to reduce the frequency of vomiting. Mrs. Riddle says that Landon was happy again and eager to fight the disease. His appetite was back too. This was a true miracle because doctors said that his situation cannot change. Chemotherapy had severe consequences on Landon’s health.
Mrs. Riddle was not charged for any crime. Now, she is seriously worried about other parents who are interested in using cannabis oil for their ill children. Riddle says that it is very unreasonable to be charged for something that can save your life. She mentioned Rumor Rose and Adam Koessler, two children suffering from cancer which didn’t have a chance to use cannabis oil because of the prohibition.
Sierra is determined to aid other parents and help them understand how useful cannabis oil can be for their children. She is well-aware that a sick child brings many worries in the lives of every family member. Instead of using pharmaceuticals, use the gift of our Mother Nature.
Her son’s cancer is officially in remission. Sierra drives from Utah to Colorado every month with her son. She was parts of several projects focused on legalizing cannabis oil. Sierra’s website provides the addresses of Michael F. Bennet, John W. Hickenlooper and Cory Gardner.
