Flashback

I lifted this from my own blog, just over four years ago.

Damn.

That's a lot of water flowing under the bridge, isn't it? I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry.

Ya'll should definitely click here and read the comments. Some of you were very, very prescient.

Sophie's next seizure treatment?




An evidence-based medicine approach to therapeutics requires scientific demonstration of a drug's efficacy as well as knowledge of short- and long-term adverse events that must be balanced against the drug's potential benefits. All of this information is lacking regarding the effects of smoking marijuana in the treatment of epilepsy. More research is needed before patients should consider marijuana for seizure relief, particularly because this represents criminal activity under US federal law and may be accompanied by adverse medical (and legal) events.

Damn. I was hoping that this might be an option for us.
