When Kalel Santiago from Puerto Rico was only 10 months old, he was diagnosed with neuroblastoma, a rare form of cancer. He underwent radiation treatment, chemotherapy and surgery and managed to survive. Unfortunately, the moment he defeated cancer, he got another diagnose and this one was permanent- Kalel had autism that made him unable to speak.
“While he was in the hospital, we noticed he didn’t speak at all and had some behavior that wasn’t right, like hand flapping, and walking on his toes. But we waited until he was 3 and cancer-free to look at his behavior,” his father Abiel Gomez Santiago told Yahoo News.
According to Yahoo- “Abiel and his wife Gladys — also parents to two older boys, now 18 and 20 — did a cram course in educating themselves on autism. They tried various schools and therapies and eventually found impressive success with a unique surf-therapy school near their home.”
One day, the family found a treatment that has real potential – cannabis oil treatment. The family received a small bottle of the oil and Kalels started taking the oil orally, twice a day.
Two days after the cannabis oil treatment, Abiel said his first words.
“He surprised us in school by saying the vowels, A-E-I-O-U. It was the first time ever. You can’t imagine the emotion we had, hearing Kalel’s voice for the first time. It was amazing. The teacher recorded him and sent it to my wife and me and we said well, the only different thing we have been doing is using the CBD,” explains Abiel’s mom.
A few days later his speech improved.
“He said, ‘amo mi mama,’ ‘I love my mom. I don’t know how to thank the cannabis oil makers,” says Gladys.
The Kalel’s story is another proof that cannabis oil can really help patients!
