This morning I spoke in Parliament about 10-year-old Jacob.
Two years ago his mum died of a brain tumour.
This year his NDIS funding was cut by 50 per cent.
Jacob has Angelman Syndrome - a genetic disorder caused by the partial deletion of chromosome 15.
Kids like Jacob with Angelman Syndrome need constant care. They can’t speak or have minimal speech. They often have problems walking. They have trouble going to sleep and staying asleep. They often have seizures and there is no cure.
Jacob’s dad Frank is raising Jacob and his two brothers on his own. He works two jobs and needs a bit of help. He needs Jacob’s funding back.

If the idiots would legalize cannabis Jacob would benefit. |

I took it orally for post chemotherapy nausea and loss of appetite but it had no effect on me whatsoever.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yes...what sort of effect are you referring to, Banjo ? Its effect on nausea and appetite ? Or on your mood ?
I was told that in America the medicinal cannabis is often psychoactive to some degree, but in Australia it is CBD only, which is non-psychoactive.
