McCain Has Brain Cancer

John McCain has been diagnosed with a brain tumor.

Just days after John McCain had a blood clot removed above his left eye, late on Wednesday his office announced that McCain has a brain tumor associated with the removed blood clot. In a statement doctors revealed that McCain has been diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive cancer. The statement says the 80-year-old senator and his family are reviewing further treatment, including a combination of chemotherapy and radiation.

There is evidence that such brain tumors respond to cannabis treatment. Unfortunately for McCain he is a drug warrior. Which means that it is highly unlikely he will use cannabis for treating his brain tumor. Despite the fact that medicinal cannabis is legal in Arizona.

Weed News makes a similar suggestion with links to studies.

Listen to the government’s National Cancer Institute:

“Studies in mice and rats have shown that cannabinoids may inhibit tumor growth by causing cell death, blocking cell growth, and blocking the development of blood vessels needed by tumors to grow. Laboratory and animal studies have shown that cannabinoids may be able to kill cancer cells while protecting normal cells.”

    You never know.

    That said, despite my periodic urges to shake him into sanity, I wish him well.
