Thanks to CBD he’s happy, healthy and full of life. Thank you all for giving our child and our family our life back.

Written by Stacey

We used the CBD oil as soon as the seizure started and they instantly stopped it. All of the people in the restaurant saw the miracle of cannabis stopping a seizure, even though they had no clue what I was using to stop it. If it weren’t for this amazing oil, we would have spent the evening in an ER with Taylor being poked, prodded, and pumped full of pharmaceuticals.

We cannot thank you all enough for this. Without the oils, Taylor may not be here with us and if he was, he’d be a shell of a person with his quality of life diminished. Thanks to CBD he’s happy, healthy and full of life. Thank you all for giving our child and our family our life back.

Without the Realm of Caring and CBD we would be in a very rough spot and nowhere to turn for help for Taylor and I. I’m 2 months seizure free, back on track, and doing well. I’ve started driving again! We all thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything. Love to the entire RoC team!

His sleep habits are so much better and he’s able to control his temper

Written by Damian’s mom

He continues to improve. His sleep habits are so much better and he’s able to control his temper. He even got his first job!

We don’t have to stress about paying our bills when we need to purchase CBD [because of the Realm Cares grant]

. Damian doesn’t have to go without for a period of time while we struggle to get the money. We can’t thank you enough for giving us this aid. It truly has helped my son get past his Asperger’s symptoms and learn and grow.

CBD has changed our lives. Without the grant, he wouldn’t be able to use it.

I noticed my hands weren’t hurting any longer even after working outside in my garden or doing strenuous work around our property

Written by Margaret

My husband Kenneth and I started taking Charlotte’s Web (CW) original hemp formula in April 2017. He’s now been seizure-free since May of 2018. I also take Charlotte’s Web for arthritis in my hands and fingers. A couple weeks after starting the oil, I noticed my hands weren’t hurting any longer even after working outside in my garden or doing strenuous work around our property. I help with my husband’s daily personal care and CW has improved my ability to do this. I would never consider stopping taking this product unless it became financially impossible.

This financial grant has been such a gift for my husband and myself, it allows us to purchase the oil consistently so we can take it every day without the financial worries. We are able to pay our other bills without having to choose what not to pay that month. Without the grant, we probably wouldn’t be able to do this.

It has allowed my husband to decrease some of his other prescription medications and start to feel better since some of the pharmaceutical medications were making him so lethargic. It has also allowed me to take care of his daily needs without the pain I used to experience in my hands. I look forward to taking my dose each day knowing it makes each day better for us both.

Cannabis has helped ease my anxiety and lessen my Asperger’s symptoms

Written by Megan

Cannabis has helped ease my anxiety and lessen my Asperger’s symptoms. I am in treatment for Lyme disease and have to go slow with the dose, but it supports my treatment by helping keep the bacteria at bay. CBD oil has been a wonderful and enjoyable part of the treatment for Lyme disease and Asperger’s.

I was able to receive the product for free as opposed to the grant because I live in Canada. This came as a huge gift because the treatment for Lyme disease is very expensive. It has been a huge blessing and I feel so grateful to have been a part of this program. It’s allowed me to use an aspect of treatment I wouldn’t have otherwise been able to use, and one I value greatly.

Things that I had to force myself to do I now do naturally

Written by Patricia

When I was 28 (in 1988), I came down with CFIDS/Fibromyalgia. The first 7 years I was bedridden. I slowly improved, but I’ve never enjoyed good health since then. I stopped driving about 5-6 years ago due to severe brain fog. Bodily pain varies. What afflicted me most has been frequent migraines, severe fatigue, a definite feeling of malaise, light and sound sensitivity (so bad I had to quit going to church and other functions); the list goes on and on.

Due to some swelling I couldn’t walk from the pain for over 2 years. On “good days” I’d try to go for nightly walks but usually had to turn back after just walking past 3 or 4 houses. It wasn’t fun, living in the dark and trying to find fulfillment doing basically nothing.

At the urging of my oldest daughter, I purchased a bottle of hemp oil. I started taking it six days ago; half a dropperful twice daily. I cannot even begin to tell you the improvement I’ve seen in that short time!! I feel mentally alert again. I no longer have that deathly morbid fatigue. My mood is …dare I say it… almost happy! Things that I had to force myself to do I now do naturally and without thought. And best of all I have taken 1 mile walks every day since taking it with absolutely no problem! Smiling, no pain, no fatigue, for the first time in many years! No way could any placebo effect cause this. I have tried so many things with sometimes disastrous results, and to tell the truth, had resigned myself to a lifetime of misery.

I’m so confident in this product I bought the big bottle of the highest dosage, which should last me quite awhile. It is awesome to feel like my old self after more than 28 years.

The brain fog from my fibromyalgia has lifted and my energy levels are up!

Written by Anonymous

I currently have severe adrenal fatigue, to the point when active I suddenly hit a brick wall and can’t move, feeling completely incapacitated.  I take 15-20 drops of high CBD oil and within ten minutes I have a second wind. It’s so subtle I didn’t even realize it at first. A friend was staying with me, observed it twice, and commented, “Your energy completely changed.”  I also noticed the brain fog associated with fibromyalgia seems to lift for several hours. I’ve had two friends comment over the phone how much more energetic I sound to them than previously.  

My doctor is very interested as he sees the change too. He will be joining the research link you sent me, he’d love for me to continue on with this product to observe the changes as well.

Thank you so much and I think of you and everyone else at the RoC as we’re all one big family 😉

I appreciate everything you and the RoC do for me.

We have been able to go out and travel without being worried sick about her seizures.

Written by a mom who wishes to stay anonymous

You have no idea how grateful we are with this CBD oil, our daughter has changed in a significant way. She´s sleeping better, her appetite is amazing, she´s more aware of her surroundings, and her squint eye seems to get better every day. Not to mention that her seizures have dropped to about 1 every 3 months (WOW!!!). The most exciting thing is that pre-school is now a reality, she has recently started and she´s enjoying it tons!

We have also been able to go out and travel without being worried sick about her seizures. I would love to mention that my relatives are also doing better than ever, it was hard for them to know that we were always on alert and that we might have to run to the hospital because she would seize.

Buying a bottle of CBD oil meant that I had to look for extra shifts and a bank loan. The currency exchange during recent months has been outrageous, one dollar meant 19 pesos for us (we live in Mexico). Now we have been able to focus on other things like house adaptations for our daughter. We have also been able to buy her splints as she has some stiffness in both of her Achilles’ tendons. We´ve also been able to pay for her doctor´s appointments. We have a sort of Medicaid but unfortunately, the doctor they allocated us wasn’t ok with cannabidiol (CBD) treatment so we had to look for another doctor which is outside coverage but is giving us a small discount. So now we can follow-up with him even more often. We´ve been able to redeem the coupon code you’ve provided to us and only pay for shipping. The assistance the RoC is giving us is such a blessing.

The impact from the RoC is way too much! Like I´ve mentioned previously we can now see for a better way of living for us and our daughter. The whole family is just overwhelmed by how she has progressed and how her seizures have decreased. They have been through a lot with us, going to the hospital, staying with her for days in the hospital, etc. I have to tell you, we had to cancel two of her birthday celebrations as she seized either the night before or on her birthday. We are all very happy with her progress. You can´t imagine how happy her cousins are as she can now attend various events, she even went to a baseball game last week!! My whole family and I would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the opportunity you are giving our daughter for a better chance at life. We can’t express and thank you enough for how much you are doing for us.

Note: This family receives financial assistance through our Realm Cares™ Grant Program.

In just a few weeks on the CBD oil, I am already seeing more movement in my foot and leg.

Written by Molly

I am a 29-year-old woman who has had intractable epilepsy (resistant to medication) for 19 years. I had my first of six brain surgeries at age 10 to stop a pretty severe brain bleed. The damage to surrounding brain tissue is what has lead to my seizure disorder. In the last 19 years, I have tried all of the anticonvulsant drugs available to me, including several drug studies. I had little or no success.

I have recently found some success with my current drug combination as well as the addition of CBD oil. I feel very fortunate to live in a state that allows people with epilepsy to obtain CBD oil. I feel that it should be allowed for those children and adults with epilepsy and other chronic conditions that could benefit from its use. I have had about an 80% reduction in seizure activity but, what I am also seeing are the restorative benefits of the CBD oil. One of the brain surgeries I had as a teenager left me completely paralyzed on the left side of my body. I needed to learn to walk, talk, and use all the muscles of that side of my body again.

In just a few weeks on the CBD oil, I am already seeing more movement in my foot and leg. Something I never got in years of physical therapy! I am a big believer in the benefits of CBD oil for individuals with epilepsy because I have experienced it first hand. I hope more individuals get access soon.

Marijuana gave me my life back

Written by Morgan in 2015

My name is Morgan and I am a 28-year-old with Multiple sclerosis (MS). I’ve had MS for 11 years and I have been on various medicines including several narcotic pain pills and sleeping pills. At one point I was taking 28 pills a day and not functional. In addition to being a business owner, I am a mother of two and a wife. I never smoked marijuana or was interested in it my entire life until the pain became so unbearable and I was literally becoming a zombie with prescription medicines.

Marijuana gave me my life back. I cannot be any clearer. I am able to smoke and feel a difference in pain within seconds and still have functionality. I rub CBD balm on my legs to stop the pain from crippling me – all illegally. I am a law-abiding citizen but risk myself every day. It is important that we move in a direction that helps and serves people. Regulations can determine the rest, but we need a forward outcome. Imagine laying naked on steel and feeling that cold burn up against your skin — you would do anything to take that dull pain away. I am now able to be a mother, business owner, and wife because of my choice in unconventional medicine. I do not think I should also be jailed for that.

Note: Morgan wrote to us in 2015 and lived in Nebraska at the time. Currently, medical marijuana (products containing more than 0.3% THC) is not an option for residents of Nebraska, but thanks to the Farm Bill passing in 2018, CBD products made from industrial hemp (containing less than 0.3% THC) are legal in all 50 states.
