COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (CBS4) – A Colorado mother says she is only trying to help her young son battle cancer. Now she says a doctor may turn her into the state because she is refusing chemotherapy treatments for her child and is instead using a product related to marijuana.
A petition on change.org calls on the governor, the Colorado Springs police, Department of Human Services and The Children’s Hospital to recognize cannabis as a treatment for cancer. The mother did not start it, but signed it after she and her child moved to Colorado Springs to take advantage of the state’s marijuana laws.
