It is no new thing that cannabis has been infused in edible products. Dating back to even before Bartolomeo Platina completed the first printed cookbook in the 15th century, where he had several dishes that included the ingredient of hemp seeds as well as one for “cannabis nectar”, cannabis has been consumed in a variety of ways for a variety of purposes.    When we think edibles, typically we think about marijuana baked into gummy bears, cookies, chocolate bars, and more. There are also those pot brownies that are not...

Celeste's autism symptoms and seizures have improved greatly since starting Charlotte's Web CBD oil and she has been taken off one of her traditional medications since being on the oil. If we didn't receive the grant we wouldn't be able to afford Charlotte's Web for Celeste. We would be stuck with the traditional medications that were no longer working. I like Charlotte's Web because it has no negative side effects. My kids feel that it is really cool that y'all help us so they don't have to go without some...

Story provided by Grace’s family Grace is doing so well since she has been on her CBD, I can't even explain how appreciative we are. We have not seen any seizures, and her skin is looking so much better. She is more active with more verbal communication and seems to be getting her milestones caught up. Her bloodwork is improving, we are feeling so blessed! Sending the RoC team HUGS <3  

Ruben's most recent EEG exam has shown much improvement. We will continue to proceed with a longer EEG exam to get the most accurate results. Also, it seems to help his ADHD. He's a bit more focused.  This has been such a blessing. At the moment I am unemployed to be a full-time caregiver to my 2 boys who have a disability.  I don't know how we'd be able to afford it otherwise. We are truly grateful for the Realm of Caring organization and those who have helped make this...

Since I began taking CBD oil, my complex partial seizures have been REDUCED to about half as often. I used to have them about twice a week but only about once a week since CBD. It has also reduced my auras a lot. I used to have auras almost every day but now it's down to about twice a week thanks to the CBD oil. The grant helped me save enough money to see a chiropractor for my back pain, pay the housing bills, and feed my hungry body. I...

I have only recently been able to begin experimenting with the CBD tincture but my initial results are incredibly encouraging!  Even if the only benefit derived is an increase in my ability to achieve sleep for longer than an hour or two at a time (which has been the norm for nearly 2 decades, constant waking and poor sleep) it would be more than worthwhile!  However, I am still hopeful and expectant that it may have other benefits, especially in relation to calming my overactive neurological system, with muscle spasm...

The cannabinoid therapy has helped my son stay stagnant in regards to his seizure medication and only progress slightly in his gabapentin, that helps him with his leg pain. He is having shorter and less frequent seizures than when he started as well. His mood seems to be better. He doesn't fuss as much as he used to, even after a seizure. Before, he would cry and scream and be agitated for an hour or two after a seizure. Now, it almost seems to not affect him once it's over....

For years I have dealt with chronic pain, muscle spasms and nerve pain and my doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong. Along with severe fatigue, I had a hard time managing daily life activities and work.  Brain fog consumed me. I couldn't concentrate or keep my train of thought. I lost the ability to carry meaningful conversations because I couldn't grasp my words.  Eventually my doctor diagnosed me with fibromyalgia.   I started taking cannabis oils and using vape pens a couple of years ago and have seen an incredible...

Jayden did really well with the CBD oil when we first started it last year. As we increased the oil, she continued to do well. Then after about 4 months, she seemed to become immune to the oil. We ran out of the oil after 5 months of use and we decided to give it a break. Jayden has autism and has severe meltdowns. The days that the oil seemed to get in her system, she had less severe meltdowns. She has once again increased her speech. We are super...

Payton's health has not improved. She is having complications with her stomach. She has been vomiting and coughing. Her stomach will not digest properly.  She had a G-tube placed and it has helped some. The CBD oil has helped with Payton's pain and sleeping. I do believe her seizures have slowed down a bit since she has been on CBD.    Payton’s story
