This
article shares the story of 16-year-old Coltyn Turner. Coltyn is a Crohn’s
patient who has successfully banished his disease into remission with the use
of cannabis.
His
story is nothing short of incredible and really is worth eight minutes of your
spare time.
Here’s
how Coltyn healed his Crohn’s Disease with cannabis oil:
As fate would have it...
At
11 years old, Coltyn Turner was diagnosed with Crohn’s Disease. It terrifyingly
began after an incident at Boy Scout Camp one summer. Coltyn almost drowned to
death in a lake.
Bacteria
in the water later triggered a dormant Crohn’s reaction.
The fated day would ultimately leave him in a wheelchair and
close to developing blood cancer. Coltyn explains,
I just got sicker and
sicker, I wasn’t getting any better. Pharmacutical after pharmacutical was
placed, and none of them worked. Like Humira, which actually gave me a T-Cell
lymphoma scare. It took about 2 to 3 years before we stopped all pharmacuitcal
medications because the last one was Humira, and if I took another
pharmacutical it would have increased my chances of developing T-Cell lymphoma
by 66%.
Fighting Crohn’s with Cannabis
Because Coltyn had a terrible time with Humira, he made the
brave and mature decision to stop taking pharmaceutical medications. But, when
medications don’t work, what other options are available? Coltyn and his family
stumbled upon an Israeli observational study that found that 10 of 11 Crohn’s
patients found relief with cannabis.
This was enough to convince him to try cannabis. He said,
At the time I didn’t know what cannabis really was. All I
knew was that it was bad and I should just stay away from it. But, when my dad
said, ‘Hey, we’re going to go try cannabis’, really my only concern was what
are the side effects. The only side effect was that it may not work. So, we
really didn’t have much to lose.
Along
with his father he traveled from Illinois to Colorado to be able to access
medical marijuana. He began with edible brownies and has since worked up to
medical cannabis oil, which is a more effective treatment for his condition.
The great news? Coltyn is #IllegallyHealed.
I
have been on cannabis for two and a half years, and I can now officially say
that I am in clinical remission.
Coltyn
is a brave advocat of cannabis and has an open door policy at his home to
others seeking information about cannabis treatment.
He
also shares his story online via Illegally Healed and is active on social
media. Since coming out with his story, many patients have reached out to
Coltyn to learn more about how to use cannabis as medicine.
Coltyn
life has transformed from being a patient to becoming a bold advocate. He
continues to help others across the country and around the world to discover
the healing powers of cannabis.
This
guy is a hero!
