"Dr. Rosado has been a pioneer in the Medical Cannabis Community in the US and was one of the first internal medicine doctors in Florida to start the trend of recommending medical cannabis as a natural alternative for my patients."
I feel honoured to have been allowed by Deborah Downey access into her own and her beautiful daughter Abi’s world! Abi suffered from the retractable form of epilepsy Lennox Gastaut Syndrome!
The years of pain and frustration that they went through was indescribable and really unnecessary but everything is 20-20 in hindsight.
In our previous call here I had entitled ‘5. Medical Cannabis Demystified - Follow-Up with Deborah and Abi’
• 5. Medical Cannabis Demystified - Fo... it had sadly become clear that Abigail after her brave battle was finally beginning to succumb and eventually passed peacefully at home with her family on April 30, 2023!
In that previous call Deborah suggested that there had to be 'Abi's Legacy' so that no child should go through what she endured, just because a medical profession denies the reality of Cannabis as a medicine!
In those last days Deborah told me about how she had finally found someone who knew what was involved in prescribing the Cannabis oils that her child so desperately needed. From the moment that the oils were introduced to Abi the changes were obvious and after over a decade of 100s of seizures Cannabis was finally easing the symptoms.
I have spoken with many parents of children with these types of retractable epilepsy and they all say that ‘the true enemy is time’ as they can see that every seizure is a vicious attack on the brain. This hasn’t been anecdotal for decades now but it is true heroes like Dr Joe Rosado who has fearlessly pioneered prescribing Cannabis to his own patients from the very beginning.
Deborah shared with me also how the staff of Drogheda hospital ‘got it’ and were ready to take the word of this pioneering doctor and on at least 2 occasions Joesph made an intervention remotely changing the prescription which brought the emergency under control. Massive Kudos to the staff in Drogheda which wasn’t the experience Deborah met elsewhere on her difficult journey.
The Mammies in all these cases are truly extraordinary women and we hope to continue to make these interviews because as Deborah says these children should be given the oils from the very first moment not treated as guinea pigs.
Thank you Dr. Rosado we absolutely believe you should have a cape and for any Irish clinicians who viewed this… I asked for a takeaway from the great man for you guys!
It was a simple message CANNABIS IS MEDICINE!!
As mentioned in the Talk we will be putting in place a Medical conference in 2025 and bring this visionary doctor to Dublin but in the meantime there is his full library all can be purchased here… https://josephrosadomd.com/author/
