Wait, loud pack for the little ones??? Mother Of 6-Year-Old Epileptic Girl Says Medical Mary Jane Enables Daughter To Walk And Talk Via HuffingtonPost When you think of the stereotypical medical Mary Jane user, Charlotte Figi may be the last person that comes to mind. That’s because Charlotte is 6 years old. She also suffers from debilitating seizures as a result of a rare form of epilepsy, a condition that’s driven the family through just about every possible treatment, searching for some form of normalcy. Desperate for options, Charlotte’s dad, Matt, told CNN they took her to a specialist who recommended a highly specialized diet. That helped slightly, for awhile until “at one point she was outside eating pine cones and stuff, all kinds of different things,” Matt said. “As a parent you have to say, let’s take a step back and look at this. Is this truly beneficial treatment because of these other things?” With no other choices, the family explored cannabis oil — an unconventional treatment, to say the least — but they told KDVR it worked immediately. According to a blog by Charlotte’s mom, Paige, her daughter’s seizures fell from 300 a week to around 3 over an 8 month period. She does note the program was first approved by a team of neurologists and pediatricians. Other benefits: [Charlotte] is consistently eating and drinking on her own for the first time in years. She sleeps soundly through the night. Her severe autism-like behaviors of self-injury, stimming, crying, violence, no eye contact, zero sleep, lack of social contact … are a thing of the past. She is clear-headed, focused, has no attention deficit. Charlotte rides horses, skis, paints, dances, hikes. She even has friends for the first time. Her brain is healing. She is healthy. She is happy. Charlotte is highlighted in a CNN documentary set to air this weekend, in which Sanjay Gupta, the news network’s chief medical expert, engages in a national conversation about Mary Jane. Sounds like this story along with Sanjay Gupta’s findings are going to bring this debate to a fever pitch! Image via CNN Continue reading
CNN medical expert Dr. Sanjay Gupta announced last night that he has reversed his blanket opposition to marijuana use, saying he once misled the public. Gupta, whose documentary on weed airs on Sunday, issued a 180 on Piers Morgan Tonight and in an op-ed called “Why I Changed My Mind On Weed.” Sanjay Gupta Apologizes For Misleading Weed Stance “I have apologized for some of the earlier reporting because I think, you know, we’ve been terribly and systematically misled in this country for some time,” he said. “And I did part of that misleading.” He said that while he formerly derided medical marijuana supporters, he has since done research that had shown him how beneficial it could be: “I mistakenly believed the Drug Enforcement Agency listed marijuana as a schedule 1 substance because of sound scientific proof,” he writes. “Surely, they have quality reasoning as to why marijuana is in the category of the most dangerous drugs that have ‘no accepted medicinal use and a high potential for abuse.'” “They didn’t have science to support that claim, and I now know that when it comes to marijuana neither of those things are true.” “It doesn’t have a high potential for abuse, and there are very legitimate medical applications. In fact, sometimes marijuana is the only thing that works.” What do you think, THGers? Comment/vote below: Should marijuana be legalized? Yes No Maybe View Poll »

While opinions spread around the country regarding Mitt Romney’s running mate, let’s go to Hollywood for the reaction of several celebrities to the news. All courtesy of Twitter… Elizabeth Banks : “I can confirm categorically that I am NOT Mitt Romney’s VP nominee. #gamechange.” Michael Ian Black : “Romney/Ryan = same initials as Ronald Reagan. THINK ABOUT IT!!!” Andy Cohen : I really hope someone has the guts to ask Paul Ryan’s stance on the KStew/RPatz situation in California. #NeedClarification Sanjay Gupta : #43 on the list of things that make you feel old: the VP candidate is younger than you are. paul ryan was born in 1970. Eva Longoria : Romney’s VP pick voted against equal pay for women and repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell. We can’t go backward. Michael Moore : Channeling Bush, war supporters/military dodgers Romney and Ryan insult those who served by using battleship as their prop. Rupert Murdoch : Thank God! Now we might have a real election on the great issues of the day. Paul Ryan almost perfect choice. Andy Richter : I think saying “worst recovery in 70 years” is kinda cute.

Romney/Ryan are Wrong for America. What do YOU think? Was Ryan a solid choice?

Two days ago, CNN’s Haiti coverage reached a strange climax, as Sanjay Gupta and Anderson Cooper morphed into a heroic team of life-saving reporters. Tonight—eight days after the earthquake hit—Gupta and Cooper seemed beaten down, almost resigned. Their reports focused mainly on the lack of supplies—medical and otherwise—that threaten to make the earthquake’s aftermath as deadly as the disaster itself.

Tonight, Larry King sold his suspenders, Anderson Cooper and Sanjay Gupta saved young Haitians, and Jessica Yellin made a terrible earthquake-related pun. Welcome to the strangest night yet of CNN’s unrelenting prime-time Haiti coverage. CNN has been generally excellent in their Haiti coverage: Where Fox and MSNBC have used the tragedy to pimp their political ideologies and the Today Show’s Ann Curry and Al Roker flew in to be useless , CNN has kept up a steady stream of on-the-ground reports and compelling pictures.
